Hey there

Do you have Lock Screen Notifications turned on or off?

Settings
Notifications
Lock Screen Notifications

[livingthedream76]

All on...I get a majority but just the odd few don't seem to come through unless I unlock the phone.

You'll need to check the notifications setting for each app where you aren't getting them on lock screen in that case.

Is it happening at set times or more randomly? Do you have any routines turned on at all?

[livingthedream76]

No routines..just random really

@livingthedream76: For the affected apps, please head to Settings > Apps > Select the relevant app > Notifications, and make sure that 'Lock screen' is highlighted with a blue border in the 'Notification types' section. Furthermore, make sure that Lock screen notifications is set to 'Show content'. 

[livingthedream76]

Should that be off? Show content when unlocked ?

[Piper123]

You have Lock Screen Notifications turned on.

The line below is about whether the notification shows in full (for example the first couple of lines of an sms) or if you just get an icon to show you have a notification but no detail on display to show you what notification (this is how I have mine set to ensure privacy).

I'm a bit confused lol so the ones I dint get notifications for until I unlock the phone..are you saying I need to go into the app and make sure its allowing it when the screens off ?

Yes
