With "Details," for apps like LINE, you'll see both the app icon and message content.


Finally, you can register up to two shortcut apps. I recommend the flashlight and camera! You can quickly take photos or turn on the light in dark situations.

  1. Tap the app icons on the bottom left and right of the lock screen.
  2. Select the apps you want to display.
