With the iPhone X, you can set up the iPhone to only show you the content of your notifications when you look at the screen and Face ID recognizes you.
On the older iPhones you could set up notification privacy options, but you had to unlock the phone to see them and most people at that point are going to press the home button and go there to unlock the phone and check the Notification Center. The iPhone X uses Face ID, so it knows as soon as you give the phone attention, and it will show you the notification when you look the phone. This combination allows you to keep some privacy and also a lot of convenience. |
