Renovation Android 15QPR2It introduces an interesting feature that aims to clear notifications on the lock screen, whose stable version is expected to be released in March 2025. The new update reportedly adds an option to minimize notifications on the lock screen, which in turn reduces notifications on the lock screen.

The new feature was noticed by an enthusiast Android Mishaal Rahman. As a rule, notifications on the lock screen take up a lot of space, covering the installed wallpaper. Although Android already offers the ability to turn off notifications on the lock screen, doing so may cause you to miss important notifications. Also, to monitor notifications, you need to unlock your device to read them.

A few lines in the latest update Android 15QPR2 Make sure Google pays some attention to making your lock screen optimized and uncluttered. When the feature goes live, it will be called “Minimize Lock Screen Notifications.” It can be turned on by going to Settings > Notifications.

The feature description says “Show fewer notifications on the lock screen.” But according to Mishal, it doesn’t actually show you fewer notifications but instead hides them within the corresponding icons. All notifications are collected under the clock inside the tablet.

When you touch the tablet, notifications are expanded and you can read them at any time. It is expected that this feature may be reserved for Android 16 and even later versions. If it becomes part of the Android 16 update, it may come with another notification-related feature called “Notification Reset”, where the phone gradually reduces the volume of successive notifications from the same app.
