Alerts and Notication Center
Alerts
Alerts let you know about important events. They can appear briey at the top of the screen, or
remain in the center of the screen until you acknowledge them.
Some apps may include a badge on their Home screen icon, to let you know how many new
items await—for example, the number of new email messages. If there’s a problem—such as a
message that couldn’t be sent—an exclamation mark appears on the badge. On a folder, a
numbered badge indicates the total number of notications for all the apps inside.
Alerts can also appear on the Lock screen.
Respond to an alert when iPod touch is locked. Swipe the alert from left to right.
Silence your alerts. Go to Settings > Do Not Disturb.
Set sounds. Go to Settings > Sounds.

quotes, and even a quick summary of what’s coming up tomorrow.
