iPhone X automatically blocks message notifications by default
As the iPhone X nears its official Nov. 3 delivery date, we're still somehow learning more about the device and how it will actually operate.
One of newest details to emerge comes from a Wired report about the device. According to the story, Apple is now turning off notification previews on the iPhone X's locked home screen by default.

Now, notifications on the iPhone X will be hidden from the initial boot up, and assuming people set up Face ID, it shouldn't cause much of a problem.
The addition of Face ID in the iPhone X means that any new messages will promptly appear when the phone is unlocked by this novel facial recognition feature. The iPhone X owner would technically have to look at their phone to see their message notifications on lock screen anyways, so the messages might as well stay hidden from any other snooping faces.

iPhone X owners will just have to visit the Settings app on their phones, then navigate to the Notifications menu. From their you can customize the level of privacy. Now, at least even the laziest iPhone owners will still get some privacy without having to navigate through so many menus.
