Message content preview on the lock screen is a feature that displays a brief snippet of the content from incoming messages when your iPhone is locked. This feature can be both a convenience and a potential privacy concern, depending on the situation.
The iPhone 15 Series, which includes the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Pro, 15 Pro Max, and iPhone 15 Plus, represents the pinnacle of modern smartphone technology. These devices are packed with features designed to make our lives more convenient, but they also prioritize user privacy and security. One such feature is the ability to enable or disable message content preview on the lock screen. In this blog, we’ll explore the purpose and benefits of this feature in detail and guide you on how to toggle it on or off.
To Enable or Disable Message Content Preview:
- Open your iPhone’s “Settings.”
- Scroll down and tap “Messages.”
- Tap “Notifications.”
- Tap on “Show Previews.“
- Under the “Show Previews” option, you have three choices:
- “Always” (default) – This will display message content previews at all times, even when your phone is locked.
- “When Unlocked” – This setting will show message content previews only when your iPhone is unlocked.
- “Never” – Selecting this option will disable message content previews entirely.
Choose the option that best suits your preferences and privacy needs.
