Expanding Notifications on Lockscreen? - Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers

Is anyone able to expand the notifications on the lock screen and take actions like quick reply or delete an e-mail??
Since EMUI 8 a lot of users are unable to expand the notifications from the lockscreen which is really annoying.
I hope Huawei fixed that for the Mate 20 pro...
For me it's a crucial feature to have.

I just read that the AOD won't show 3rd party app notifications??? What's wrong with Huawei!
Expandable LS Notifications and AOD Notifications are must haves for every Android phone!!
EMUI destroys this beautiful smartphone

Maybe time to flood their twitter and fb with this, the more we push on it... They might listen

I don't understand why they are doing this?! It takes big advantages of lockscreen and aod.
The mate 20 pro is such a great phone and they ruin it with this software...

Guys,
100%. If you like the phone but something ig stopping you from purchasing, INFORM HUAEWEI. If sometihng is wrong or a key feature isn't working as expected, TELL HUAWEI...
You should absolutely inundate them with enquiries via Twitter, email, Facebook and their website about this sort of thing. Why? Because it will be worth it in the end. There's at least a CHANCE they'll make the change with a software update.

Deleting an E-Mail works now (at least with Gmail on 122). I can push the little downwards arrow and the notification expands on the lock screen.

I find this incredibly annoying. What is the point of even having these notifications if you can't expand them to see what they are for!?

You can interact with lockscreen notifications. If you click on the arrow in the notification itself, you’ll then see options to interact with the notification. It’s a rather simple implementation, but you have to first click the arrow to then expand it.

Doesn't work for me. Click the down arrow and it invites me to click it again, this brings up the face unlock screen rather than any further detail from the notification?

exactly the same on 122. Down arrow does nothing. Can't expand any notificiations, tried gmail, whatsapp, twitter. What a load of nonsense.

Go to Security ——> Face Recognition ——-> Smart Lock Screen Notifications. Make sure that’s clicked off. See if that helps.

Not sure why you’re experiencing this issue. I can interact with notifications with no issues. A simple double tap on the arrow and I can reply, delete, etc. No issues whatsoever.

Lock screen notifications are kept private until the phone recognizes your registered face... It's a privacy feature...

Something to add from myself, expanding works on 122 firmware. But, for Whatsapp and Messenger when you unlock the screen, expand the notification, the messege text disappears (like on screenshot). Anybody encountered such bug?

I'm having the same issue with the blank notifications (looks like the font is white but not sure)

Pop-up Notifications When V30 Always On is activated?

Is there a way to get notifications to pop-up when the always on display is active?
You get the icon above the clock. Are you wanting a whole heads up notification or something? The screen to turn on? I don't think there is an option for something like that. At least I haven't seen one.

Yes - I would prefer a pop-up notification for text messages, emails. Was hoping there was a setting I was missing to be able to allow this.
Thanks.

It only shows an icon. I wish it showed the actual message Like Pixel does. but it does not. If your main concern is text messages you can download something like Textra which has an option to wake up the phone when I message arrives. Then you will see the message.

Is there somewhere an app that will also show pop-up messages? Using the Outlook app for example...I find it totally worthless that I get a notification sound but absolutely no popup. I don't want to have to pull the notification center down, I just want a pop up showing the message that I just received.
On that note, I *HATE* how the lock screen INSISTS on combining notifications from an app. If I get 10 emails, I want to see 10 separate notification entries, damn it.
Using Android....is, well, annoying. I shouldn't have to download apps just to make everything work. No wonder my wife rejected the V30 and went back to iOS.

Believe it or not Android is getting better and better with how notifications are handled and how they can be custom tailored per each app. The usage of the notification center is that way for a reason for quick and easy access to your notifications without completely interrupting the user. The cool thing is that there are other apps that you can use in order to adjust the phone to perform how you want it. Android is all about customization. You can have it the way it comes from the manufacturer or you can add apps to customize your experience. For this reason it may take an Android user longer to initially set up a phone vs a iUser.
Good luck.

Lock Screen Notifications.

Hey all,
Has Hauwei fixed the way that their lock screen shows notification? Can you still only view new notifications on the lock screen? Does it still not play well with 3rd music app widgets?

I got mate 10 pro,dont have any problems with music apps, but notifications has a bug, which kills apps and notifications are delayed or not showed at all untill you unlock your phone..
Darn, that is super unfortunate. I think I may have to pick something else up. Ty for the feedback.
I'm also disappointed.. could stay with mate 9 pro, i see no difference, mate 9pro even felt smoother.
I had the same problems with the notifications with my Mate 10 pro but i just figured out why.
It can be weird and not user-friendly but if you don't choose Magazine Unlock from the LockScreen -> LockScreenStyle, you won't be able to have notifications (or only messages notifications). Check also the top right corner menu in the Notifications Management and set it to Always or Don't diplay notification content.
I hope this will help you.

I can only select magazine unlock, no other alternativ is present and i can't seem to uncheck magazine. Any ideas?
Is this still a problem?
How can a phone not notify you when it is locked ? seems like a pretty major flaw.

No problem with notifications too
But problem with expanding notifications in lockscreen with magazine locks.
My mate 10 don't show the message / wechat / whatsapp / email notification anymore when screen is locked. I remember it used to show, and I think I have accidentally changed something to disable this feature. I already went to Setting/ Apps & Notifications/ Notifications management/ and enable EVERYTHING.
In addition, at the upper right top corner I clicked the 3 dots, selected "Lock Screen Notifications" and choose "Display all notifications", still no hope.
Can anyone help me on this?
Thanks!!

Huawei disabled that feature from the last couple of updates for all devices citing privacy issues.
Do you know if there is any way of getting around that, is there any third party software that could re-enable expanding notifications on the lock screen - it's one thing I really miss having just upgraded from a Nexus 5X!

Yea i have novalauncher but it doesn't affect lock screen. i think you need lockscreen launcher but I don't want to change. Huawei should give the option in lockscreen settings
If you have face unlock enabled, go to settings - security - face unlock and disable smart lock screen notifications
Honor\huawei has indeed screwed this up. faceunlock or pin or etc is not the problem.
The problem is at lock screen, you can see a notification for whatsapp
If it is just a single message, you're fine. You can read it.
But if it is multiple messages or multi line, you can't, as it only shows amount of messages notifications, and the FIRST line of the message.
You can't expand the notification to read the rest. You end up having to unlock and go into whatsapp to read it.
*Sometimes you just want to read the messages, without ending up showing yourself last online in WhatsApp........
Ifyou have enabled face unlock and swipe to get to the launcher you can press the power button, the phone will recognize your face and then you can pull down the notifications.
Same if you want to skip a song at spotify etc.

Can't. It doesn't work.
Steps.
1. Press power button or lift phone to start face unlock
2. U can see whatsapp notifications on the lock screen, but they are grouped up. Meaning, can't expand to see contents
3. Face unlock recognizes your face. You can now able to slide to unlock
4. Still, the notifications can't be accessed or expanded to read full content

The same issue here. My wife's Honor 10 after customization completely lost lockscreen notifications and camera shortcut too. I spent long time trying to solve this in notification settings but failed- non app like default SMS, WhatsApp or Messenger displays notification on lockscreen. Do you have any advice please?

Hello. Notifications currently aren't working with custom lockscreen themes. Devs from honor said it was for higher security. I hate to say that the only way to see notifications on lockscreen is to change lockscreen theme to default, just lockscreen is enough though, you can keep other things like icons etc in whatever theme you want. I personally hate the clock being at the bottom of screen but there is no other way for notifications to show up properly atm. I also tried custom lockscreen 'launchers' but they're bugged. Hope this helps.
Tested working on Huawei View10, You can enable full message content on lock screen by going to phone settings > security & Privacy > Face Unlock > and disable "smart lock screen notification". These seem to be a bad description on Huawei part because you would think this turns off notifications on lock screen but it only limits the content on lock screen for security purposes. The only time i need to expand my messages on lock screen is when phone is sitting on desk and i don't want to lift the phone to unlock it in order to read my notification. Lock screen notification can be set for apps separately. Hope this helps.

On 10.0.0.154 can somebody use the Bubbles notification?

If yes, how? Exactly what should be set?
I tried everything, in the developer settings the bubble usage is set, at the app also set.
Any idea?
Same problem
I enabled it but till now I don't know how it should be used. Seems that there will be some next update to fix this issue maybe and also the issue that the AOD is still the same as EMUI9.1
I enabled it in Developer Settings, the last option down. im on emui 10
Ok. The question is : does it works?
Do you receive bubble notifications?
Of course I enabled the bubbles in the developer settings, but I receive NO bubble notifications.

The only thing I did was enable enable Banners and Sprechblasse (speech bubble). you can go there by setting-Apps-Gmail-Notifications. And Bubbles ind Developer Options of course must be enabled. Thats all i did
Or you can go to Gmail Settings and choose your email and then manageNotifications
Dav,
thank you. I tried everything (I think) but simple do not have the bubbles...
I receive the banner, but not the bubbles notification.
I keep testing...

I tried to activate bubbles but no lucks...
Hello Dav,
just be be sure, are you speaking about bubbles like Messenger produces?
Not heads up notifications (a rectangle at the top of the screen)?
Could you send a screenshot?
Thanks a lot

Question No Notifications Icons in AoD

Problem, no notification icons are displayed on the AOD although everything is activated in the AoD settings. Otherwise the notification with sound and vibration will be displayed on the lock screen. Anyone an idea?

for CN rom, only oppo approved apps get to appear on AOD.. this translates to mainly oppo's own apps and a few popular china govt approved apps like qq and wechat.. its likely hard coded into the AOD..

Oh, that makes sense, because I am using Oppo Messages, and Google Phone and Gmail.
Yes, Oppo Apps, Phone and SMS are present in AoD .
OK, i can survive with this option.
Thanks for information!
With the App "Allways on Amoled" from PlayStore you geht all App Notifications.
The app eats the battery, better not install it
