How to Disable Notification Previews for Apps in iOS 11

Disappointed about the new notification system in iOS 11? There’s chance for you to disable notification previews for apps on iOS 11.

Primo iPhone Data Recovery

Primo iPhone Data Recovery focuses on iOS data recovery, now available to retrieve up to 25 types of deleted or lost iPhone data. Download the tool to have a try.

What is being complained most on iOS 11 is the new notification system. The biggest problem is that you can’t delete notifications at one time. Instead you have to open every single notification to remove it. What a waste of time when there are too many meaningless notifications!

Disabling the notification previews that annoy you or you don’t want anyone else to see might be a way. Previously, you could only disable that for apps like Mail, Messages, Photos and Wallet. Now in iOS 11, you can disable notification previews for every single app on iPhone. Read on to check how it works.
