How can you see WhatsApp messages on lock screen?

To see WhatsApp messages on your lock screen, you typically need to enable notifications for WhatsApp and ensure your lock screen settings allow for message previews. Here's how you can do it on both Android and iOS:

### Android:

1. **Enable Notifications:**
   - Open WhatsApp.
   - Go to **Settings** (three dots in the top-right corner) > **Notifications**.
   - Make sure "Show notifications" is turned on.
   - You can also customize other notification settings here.

2. **Lock Screen Settings:**
   - Go to your device's **Settings**.
   - Tap on **Apps & notifications** or a similar option (may vary by device).
   - Find and tap on **WhatsApp**.
   - Tap on **Notifications**.
   - Ensure that notifications are enabled and set to show on the lock screen.
   - Depending on your Android version, you may have options like "Lock screen notifications," where you can choose to show all notifications or hide sensitive content.

### iOS (iPhone):

1. **Enable Notifications:**
   - Open **Settings** on your iPhone.
   - Scroll down and tap on **Notifications**.
   - Find **WhatsApp** in the list of apps and tap on it.
   - Make sure **Allow Notifications** is turned on.
   - You can customize notification settings such as sounds, badges, and banners here.

2. **Lock Screen Settings:**
   - In **Settings**, go to **Notifications** as mentioned above.
   - Tap on **Show Previews**.
   - Select either **Always** (to always show previews of WhatsApp messages on the lock screen) or **When Unlocked** (to show previews only when your phone is unlocked).

### Additional Tips:

- **Privacy Concerns:** If you are concerned about privacy, you can choose to hide sensitive content or disable previews altogether in your lock screen settings.
- **App-Specific Settings:** WhatsApp also has its own notification settings within the app, so make sure those are configured as per your preferences.

By adjusting these settings, you should be able to see WhatsApp message previews on your lock screen when they come in, making it easier to stay updated without unlocking your phone.
