I could be wrong here, but I can’t see any way of viewing old notifications.
It isn’t hard to accidentally dismiss one then wonder what it was. Why there isn’t there an interface for looking back?
Edit: below it says there are emails and notices on web login.
- wwind123 3mo agoIf a notification is dismissed on iphone, there's indeed no central UI to see it again on the phone. That's a sad state of iphone. Many people have asked, but Apple just doesn't care enough to do it. Now I hope this kind of high-profile security incidents could nudge Apple towards taking action.
- brookst 3mo agoAny source for that “Apple just doesn’t care”, as opposed to thinking there are security/privacy tradeoffs or other considerations that cut against such a feature?
- crewindream 3mo agoOk, apple does not care, but gives “security/privacy” consideration as a public reason for not doing anything.
- Y-bar 3mo agoIf Apple can store the sms/iMessage, and email history, and health/journal history, and my Wallet payment history, in a safe manner I would think Apple can store notification history in a safe manner. How would notifications be meaningfully different from these? I think the proof of Apple’s level of care is in their lack of attention to this issue.

- Y-bar 3mo ago> Ephemeral transit layer owned by third-parties constantly This is a good description of SMS and RCS.
- kakacik 3mo agoIf they cared, they would give user triple confirm option to choose for example. Oh wait this is apple, they always know whats best for the user and do the choices for them, even when wrong. So all is as expected
- wwind123 3mo agoWith modern cryptography techniques, Apple could certainly do it if they cared enough. I guess the potential benefit doesn't justify the potential effort and cost related to the change, from Apple management point of view.
