Having notifications single file, one after another, can be quite cumbersome. However, group notifications are an amazing feature on your iPhone. All the notifications from a single application show up in a group. You have to tap on them in order to see it. This kind of sorts you out too because one largely depends on notifications for their day-to-day living. So, now you can check your office email and Facebook and leave the rest of it for later. However, if you are not comfortable with this, the phone also allows you to un-group your notifications via settings. Thus, you can use your iPhone as you like. 

However, it doesn’t end there! You can manage your notifications right from the lock screen. You can ‘clear’ them if you like or you can chose to swipe away some of them as per your liking. Also, if the notifications are being too noisy, you can choose to silent them from the convenience of your main screen itself. All you have to do is, go to ‘test flight’ and then choose the ‘Deliver Quietly’ option. Thus, you no longer have to disturb all and sundry just because you are getting too many notifications. This is also a useful option if you have forgotten to put your phone on silent.

Thus, the iOS12 is definitely a great upgrade for the apple fan boys!
