Notifications
Notifications alert you to the arrival of new messages, calendar events, and
alarms, as well as ongoing events, such as file downloads.
When a notification arrives, its icon appears at the top of the screen. Icons for
pending notifications appear on the left, and system icons showing things like
Wi-Fi signal or battery strength on the right:
To open the notification shade, swipe down from the top left corner of any
screen.
Certain notifications can be expanded to show more information, such as
email previews or calendar events. The item at the top is always expanded if
available.
To open the related app, touch the notification icon on the left. Some
notifications also allow you to take specific actions by touching icons within
the notification. For example, Calendar notifications allow you to Snooze
(remind you later) or send email to other guests.
When you’re finished with a notification, just swipe it away. To dismiss all
notifications, touch the Dismiss icon at the top right of the notification shade.
