Notifications Wont Swipe Away Anymore

In one of the last few updates notifications will still show up in the notification center even when it comes up as a banner and I swipe away. Previously, if a banner notification was displayed and I swiped it away the notification would go away. Now you have to go into the notification center and swipe it away again. Why did this change?! I now have to clear the notification twice! This is fairly new maybe in the last month or two.

Greetings Otto371,


While we cannot speculate on why something was changed, this article explains how to clear notifications.


  • "Clear notifications: Swipe left on a notification or group of notifications, then tap Clear or Clear All.
  • "Clear all your notifications in Notification Center: Go to Notification Center, tap the Clear Notifications button, then tap Clear."
