Say what a notification is
What those lines on your screen are, and where each one comes from.
A notification is a short line an app puts on your screen to say something has happened. It is not the thing itself.
Pressing it opens the app it came from, where the whole thing is waiting.
Key points
- A notification is a short line an app puts on your screen
- Pressing one opens the app it came from
What to remember
- Every notification names the app that sent it.
- Every notification carries the name of its app.
Try this
Read the small app name above a notification on your own screen. That is who sent it.
