Your iPhone apps are almost all capable of showing notifications. These can be seen as pop-ups on your screen, or in a bar at the top of the screen. There are also notifications that can be shown as alerts on your lock screen, which allows you to view information on your iPhone without having to unlock your device.
One of the more useful apps on your device that can show these lock screen alerts is the Phone app. This means that you can show alerts that indicate when you have missed a call, allowing you to know the phone number that you missed without needing to unlock your device. Our short guide below will show you how to do this.
