Don't like Apple's new Stack View at the bottom of your iPhone? Don't worry,
you have a few options.
IF YOU'VE UPGRADED to iOS 16 on your iPhone, you might have noticed your
Notification Center looks different. Notifications are now stacked at the
bottom of the display by default, instead of taking up the whole screen.
Apple's reasoning? It's meant to showcase your beautiful lock screen,
especially since there are several new ways to customize it with widgets,
Portrait photos, and fresh designs for the clock.
But if you're not a fan, don't worry. You can easily change it back to the
original format. We walk you through the steps to revert your notifications
back to the old look, and also how to switch to an entirely new "Count" view
as well.
Three Ways to Display Notifications
In iOS 15, the only options in Notification Settings were to tweak features
like Scheduled Summary, Show Previews, and Screen Sharing. But in iOS 16,
Apple has expanded your options to include three new ways to view
notifications in the Notification Center: Count, Stack, and List. Here's how
they differ:
List View: This is the classic way notifications have been shown on iPhones
for years. It's what you'll want to choose if you don't like the new stacked
view in iOS 16. All of your notifications will appear from top to bottom
across the entire lock screen.
Stack View: This is the new default after you upgrade to iOS 16 (or set up a
new iPhone 14).
With this layout, all of your notifications will appear at the bottom of the
display. Tap on the bundle and they will expand to fill the screen. Swipe up
and you'll see older notifications sitting at the bottom. This view is great
for anyone who wants to prioritize the lockscreen wallpaper more than
anything.
Count View: This view completely hides your notifications and only shows the
total number at the bottom of the screen. For example, if you have two
unread text messages, five Instagram alerts, and one missed call, it will
show "8 Notifications" displayed at the bottom. You can swipe up to view
them and swipe down to hide them again.
How to Change the Lock Screen Notification Design
1. Open Settings and tap on Notifications .
2. In the Display As module at the top, tap Count , Stack , or List based
on what you prefer.
If you ever want to change to a different view, just follow the steps above
again.
Whichever you choose as your default, you can always swap between all three
views right from the lock screen through a series of gestures. Swipe all the
way up from the bottom of the display to showcase all your notifications in
list view; swipe down to condense them into a stack; swipe down again (from
Stack View) to hide the notifications and show only the total number.
