The iOS Academy: Getting Rid Of Notification Banners
by Matthew Sims
November 4, 2011
In today's iOS Academy we discuss how to get rid of the notification banners that pop down for what seems like an abnormal length of time in iOS 5.
I know when I'm playing multiplayer games in iOS (i.e., Fruit Ninja HD) and a banner appears it does tend to be a bit distracting, but here's good news, we're going to solve that very problem.
What you want to do, when a notification banner pops down from the top of your device, are one of these two things:
You can just swipe from right to left on the notification banner (as shown below).
When the notification banner drops down, you slightly pull down on the banner then quickly flick it upwards.
It is that simple. Don't forget to watch the video walk through below and let us know what you think. Also If you have any feedback or suggestions you can let me know via Twitter. As always we'll see you back here tomorrow.
