Notification display problem

On a locked phone, notifications appear as rectangles. 
Not unlocked, everything is fine. Not all.
Only a few.
What could this be connected with? How can I disable this?

This might be because “show previews“ is on “when unlocked”. Go to Settings > Notifications > Show Previews and switch it to “Always”. If this doesn’t work or it’s already on “Always” it might be because it’s switched to “When Unlocked” only for certain apps. To change this, stay in the Notifications settings and just tap the apps where this problem occurs, scroll down to “Show Previews” and switch that to “Always”.
