View and respond to notifications
Respond to a notification
Notifications show up at the bottom of the screen to notify you of new
voicemail and messages, upcoming appointments, missed calls, application
updates, and more. By default, if a notification arrives when the screen is off,
the gesture area light pulses. You can turn this feature off.
Do one of the following:
• Tap the notification to act on it.
• For some types of notifications, throw the notification off the side of the
screen to dismiss it.
View all your notifications
For most types of notifications, if you do not tap a notification after a few
seconds, it becomes an icon in the lower-right portion of the screen.
1 Tap anywhere on the bottom of the screen to display your
notifications.
2 Tap a notification to act on it. If the notification has a number next to it,
the number indicates how many items are included in the
notification—how many voicemail or email messages you have, and so
on.
