If you’ve been searching through iOS 7 for new features and settings, you may want to take a look at Notification Center. If you haven’t explored it yet, iOS 7 adds a new Today View to Notification Center that will give you a rundown of your current schedule, reminders, destinations, and more.
The best part is, the Today View is completely customizable. You have the option to enable or disable any of the default views in the list. This fantastic update also allows you to access Notification Center right from the lock screen. Because of this, Apple has added some additional options that will allow or restrict access to certain parts of Notification Center on the lock screen.
