Not necessarily. If you're using Grindr or Period Tracker, to pick just two examples, you might not want the lock screen to show *any* hint of a notification from the app, regardless of its contents. >>> but is the desire to not show grindr or period tracker notifications really a potential user security issue ? honest question btw, rtm is too close to alter this behavior imho. please talk to JoeO if you want to escalate. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1371081 Title: if “when locked, allow [...] notifications” is disabled, notifications should not be shown Status in Ubuntu UX bugs: New Status in “unity8” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: Under system settings -> Privacy & Security -> Phone locking there's a “When locked, allow: notifications and quick settings” checkbox.
