ios10 email notification preview

Anyone know how to get the lock screen notifications for new emails to only show sender and subject line? I'm getting notifications that fill my whole iphone screen. Thanks

Hi there JRC4,


Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! Thanks for bringing your question about iOS 10 Mail notifications. I love being able to see a little bit about my incoming messages but like you, I wouldn't want my whole email to show up either. I'm happy to show you how to change the setting so it just shows a little information and not the whole message when your iPhone is locked.

  1. Open the Settings app
  2. Go to Notifications > Mail
  3. Under MAIL OPTIONS turn off Show Previews (green is on, blank is off)


There's a lot of new things in iOS 10 and I have a link for you to check out to learn more about what's new with iOS 10:
