Description
If you’ve updated to iOS 27 and wondered where your iPhone notifications have gone, don’t worry, they haven’t disappeared, they’ve just moved. Once Siri AI is switched on, the familiar swipe down from the top-middle of the screen opens Siri instead of Notification Centre, which catches loads of people out. I’ll show you both quick ways to find your notifications again, and note that Siri AI needs an iPhone 15 Pro or later.
Transcript
Well, if you’re on this video, that probably means that you can’t find the notifications on iOS 27, because they’ve moved, which is breaking years of muscle memory. Well, don’t panic, I’ve got you, and I’ll make this super quick.
There are two ways to get notifications on the iPhone with iOS 27. The first is from your Lock Screen. Simply swipe up the Lock Screen, but don’t unlock the phone, swipe up from the middle instead, and you’ll get all notifications there in chronological order.
But of course, we’re used to pulling down from the very top-middle of our phone to get Notification Centre, whether you’re using an app or just on the Home Screen. And that now opens up Siri AI, which can be annoying, and for me, I’ve certainly triggered that many times by mistake whilst I’ve been testing this.
Well, there’s a clue to where notifications now live, because when you get a notification, it will both appear and disappear from the top-left corner of your phone. And that’s it, simply pull down from the top-left, and you’ll find all your notifications there.
Told you it’d be quick. Hit subscribe, check out this one next.
