No notifications on lock screen

[ragreenburg]

I do not get notifications on the lock screen, despite the fact that this setting is activated in the Privacy settings. The blue LED comes on, but I must unlock the phone to see that there is a notification. For example, open king's cross, enter "sleep 5", then hit the power button. After 5 seconds, the blue LED flashes, but when the lock screen comes up there is no notification.

Is this problem unique to me, or do other people experience it?

(Feature request: The ability to have a third lock screen notification setting, not just on or off, but a setting which allows the *presence* of a notification but not its *content*)

Nope, Phosh just doesn't currently have that feature. Maybe go and add an issue on the GitHub. I was just thinking about this last night though and I would love the feature.

@ragreenburg Thanks a bunch for your answer! Just a minor point of clarification: When you say "Phosh just doesn't currently have that feature", were you referring to 1) notifications on the lock screen or 2) protected no-content notifications on the lock screen?

Thanks again for answering my question.

I think both. I know for certain things you can view it on the lock screen, like if you have a podcast playing through Gnome Podcasts you can see that on the lock screen. That being said, that is the only thing I've seen on the lock screen. I really like the idea of a quick notification screen that just says like "New Message in Chatty" or something though. Especially since the blue light goes on randomly without there actually being a notification.
