Alerts and Notification Center<br />
Alerts<br />
Alerts let you know about important events. They can appear briefly at the top of the screen, or<br />
remain in the center of the screen until you acknowledge them.<br />
Some apps may include a badge on their Home screen icon, to let you know how many new<br />
items await—for example, the number of new email messages. If there’s a problem—such as a<br />
message that couldn’t be sent—an exclamation mark appears on the badge. On a folder, a<br />
numbered badge indicates the total number of notifications for all the apps inside.<br />
Alerts can also appear on the Lock screen.<br />
Respond to an alert when <strong>iPhone</strong> is locked. Swipe the alert from left to right.<br />
Silence your alerts. Go to Settings > Do Not Disturb.<br />
Set sounds and vibrations. Go to Settings > Sounds.<br />
Notification Center<br />
Notification Center collects your notifications in one place, so you can review them whenever<br />
you’re ready. Review all your alerts, or just the ones you missed. Or tap the Today tab for a<br />
summary of the day’s events—such as the weather forecast, traffic conditions for your commute<br />
(<strong>iPhone</strong> 4s or later), appointments, birthdays, stock quotes, and even a quick summary of what’s<br />
coming up tomorrow.<br />
Open Notification Center. Swipe down from the top edge of the screen.<br />
Set notification options. Go to Settings > Notification Center. Tap an app to set its notification<br />
options. You can also tap Edit to arrange the order of app notifications. Touch , then drag it to<br />
a new position.<br />
Note: To include traffic conditions for your commute (<strong>iPhone</strong> 4s or later) in the Today tab, make<br />
sure Frequent Locations is turned on in Settings > Privacy > Location Services > System Services ><br />
Frequent Locations.<br />
Get government alerts. In some areas, you can turn on alerts in the Government Alerts list. Go to<br />
Settings > Notification Center.<br />
