Hello all,
I am coming from iOS and I really liked the feature where the notifications on the lockscreen are hidden when phone is locked and shown when it is unlocked using face ID.
On OneUI, we can either choose to show or hide notifications on the lockscreen regardless if the device is locked or unlocked.
Does anyone have a workaround to achieve the behavior as in the iOS?
Yes, I want that too but unfortunately it's not available in Android.

Aside from Dashclock, any other way to get access to notifications?
I'd prefer to have a swipe down gesture ala iOS access to notifications.
Huh? You just swipe down from the top and your notifications are there.
What is this iOS you speak of?

That only works if your lock method is "Slide". If you have any form of password/pattern, then the notification shade is blocked as a security feature.
Speaking of which, if the OP wants that functionality, then either they need to set security to "slide", or if they still want slide notification AND password lock, then it kind of defeats the point...
Besides, dashclock doesn't really show much until you slide downwards to display the full list anyway so it's already sort of along the right lines!
May want to give this a spin; the option for displaying notifications on the lockscreen is pretty handy.

I use LockerPro Lockscreen. Banner notifications are similar to iOS and you can choose to use the banner notifications even while using the phone normally as well, which is cool if you use immersive or expanded desktop mode. Also has ability to add your own shortcuts/apps/widgets and then your whole app drawer as well.
Xposed with "notifcation mod" module does exactly that. Allow you to pull down the notification shade and even respond to the notification if the notification supports it. If the action requires additional user input then the pin screen is presented before the user is allowed to proceed. Works awesome and since it still forces PIN entry, I think very secure. Not private, but secure.

This bothers me since Lollipop is released.
Is there a way to block selected notifications on lockscreen but still showing up in statusbar?
I'm using pin lock and want to have the music widget on the lock screen but when I enable the lockscreen notifications also Tasker is shown there.
The only option I have is to block Tasker completely which also prevents Tasker from showing up in the statusbar.
Its like everything or nothing.

Keep pressing on the notification.
A pop up will apear. Select your choice.
Yeh but its only possible to block an notification completely but I only want to disable it on lockscreen and have it still showing in the statusbar when the device is unlocked.

I know this is not exactly what you need but this could help a bit, go to settings, sound n noti, when device is locked, dont show notifications.
My Nexus 5 has not been rooted, but if I need to root it, I will do so. I would like to be able to filter on a per-app basis all notifications. For example, I have Ultimate Rotation Control and Custom Quick Settings installed. Both place notifications on the lock screen. I would like to eliminate these notifications from the lock screen without blocking other notifications from these apps or other lock screen notifications. If possible, I would like to be able to save the filters as profiles so I can easily change them.
Can anyone recommend an app for per-app notification filtering?

Xnotifications. Or GravityBox. But for those you'll need both root and the Xposed Framework.
Before you do any of those though, doesn't your stock ROM give you the option to block certain notifications on the lockscreen?

Thanks for the reply. I'll take a look at your suggestions.

There is no mechanism to specifically block notifications from appearing on the lock screen. It's possible to "hide sensitive content", but the notification still appears, taking up just as much space. Other than that, the only choice is to block all notifications. It's an incredibly stupid oversight for android to not provide a mechanism for per-app blocking of lock screen notifications. Another gripe is the silly requirement for a notification to be in the notification bar or solely to enable an app to listen in the background. There should be a setting to hide such notifications. (Hiding should be the default.)

I have the option to hide such notifications in the lock screen. But I'm running a custom ROM. Seeing that you're not rooted, I'm assuming your still on stock also. Which is pretty surprising seeing that you have a Nexus 5. Which is almost synonymous with root and custom ROMS.
I'm having very inconsistent lock screen notifications on Nougat after the update. I'm on the stock theme with Magazine Unlock.
Update: It appears as if new notifications display on the lock screen. As soon as you unlock the screen, then re-lock it, the notifications disappear from the lock screen even if they're still active in the notification tray. This is not how lock screen notifications are supposed to work, AFAIK and as far as I remember from Marshmallow and other ROMs as well.
Global:
When device is locked: Show all notification content
If device is locked, prevent typing (...) [unchecked]
Screen lock secured with PIN, fingerprint unlock enabled
App specific (In this example, 'Slack'):
Allow notifications [checked]
Display on the lock screen [checked]
When locked: Hide notification content [checked] (tried this set both ways, no difference)
I don't see any lock screen notifications with these settings. In the case of Slack above, I have active notifications in my status bar and I don't see them on the lock screen.
I went to bed last night with nothing displaying, woke up and I saw Calendar, Gmail, etc on my lock screen. Used my phone a bit, re-locked display, turned screen on, and back to no notifications. This morning though, Tasker is now showing in my lock screen (as it should) but none of my other apps are showing on the lock screen.
Is anybody else experiencing this?
I have a similar problem.
I have just upgraded to Nougat, EVA-L09C432B360, and I have no notification on status bar on screenlock. I find it annoying. Didn't find any work around.
Once the screen is unlocked I find the notification on status bar.
I dont want to have the notification displayed as a banner but only in status bar.
It's very annoying. I didn't have this problem on Marshmallow with the VUi Material Design theme, maybe once he gets a version for EMUI 5.0 it'll start working again.
I've just upgraded to B378, but still I got no notification in status bar of the lock screen ( nor aquamail or whatsapp). It might be the applications in fault here.
I just got a brand new Honor 8 which immediately upgraded to Nougat, and this seems to be the default behaviour for lockscreen notifications on EMUI, not an issue or a bug.
Since EMUI is heavily iOS inspired, and this is the notification behaviour on iOS then they copied it. I suggest trying a different lockscreen app until Huawei changes this.
That is caused by the theme used.
Go to themes, customize, lockscreen style, and be sure that you have selected #unlock with images"
I have only magazine unlock option. This did not solve the problem.
I'm having the exact same problem on my P10 lite (it came with Nougat out-of-the-box).
Has anyone figured this out? I don't have unlock with images option either..
As mentioned earlier - EMUI does not use the standard Nougat lockscreen notification actions. Do not expect it to work like stock android. The only way around it is to do one of these two options:
1. Install a 3rd party launcher (be careful, some don't play nicely with fingerprint/pin security)
2. Install Nils Lock Screen Notification app from the Play Store. This app does exactly what you want and lets you keep the stock lock screen.
Had the same issue with Gmail notifications using an Honor 8. The solution I found was hidden in Gmail Settings.
Open Gmail settings
Click on your email account(s) under the General settings
Make sure Notifications is checked
Select Inbox sound and vibrate
Make sure Label notifications is checked
This was the missing piece for me: Make sure the Notify for every message is checked
Screenshots of Gmail Settings
Also make sure you have changed the default email app to Gmail. Settings, Apps, Settings (wheel that appears at the bottom of the screen), Default app settings, Email - Gmail.
I had the same problem before. To fix it you have to enable the magazine unlock after apply the theme.
Hey,
in iOS 11 you're able to hide the notifications on the lockscreen and show them when the phone is unlocked through the fingerprint, but you're still on the lockscreen. Is there any way or app to make the same on an Android Smartphone? I can hide the notifications from the lockscreen but when I unlock the phone I'm directly on the homescreen. My Phone is the Galaxy S9.
