Never Miss an Alert with Notification Center

Ever had a notification banner pop up on your iPhone but disappear before you were able to read it? To see a list of recent notifications on your iPhone or iPad, unlock your device and swipe down from the center of the top of the screen. This will open the Notification Center, a list of all your recent notifications.

To leave Notification Center, just swipe up from the bottom of your screen or tap any notification in the list to open the app that sent it. If the list is getting a little cluttered, just tap the X button. All the alerts will be cleared out and the Notification Center will stay empty until your next notification comes in.
