After the latest update, all notifications become "content hidden" as shown in the screen capture. I can't find an option in setting to enable me to read the notification. Is there a way to fix it?

Hi,
quick question:
If I select "block from Peek" (hope it is called like that in english) from the Blacklist menu in the an app's options, what does happen?
A) Screen does not wake when the app gets a notification
B) Screen does not wake when the app gets a notification AND the notification symbol of that app is never shown on the Peek screen
It seems to me, that A) is correct. If is the case, wouldn't it make more sense to do B)? I mean you don't want peek for those notifications, so they should not even show, right? Additionally, if you habe permanent notification that does not have a symbol in the notification bar, they still get their icon on the peek screen, which is rather ugly.
Cheers!
I was wondering if anyone can elaborate on enabling the peeking feature for notifications on 6.0 update?..as far as I can tell it's enabled for all my apps, yet I'm not receiving any notification at top of screen from any app. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated
I've never heard of such a feature. What do you mean?
Part of the 6.0 update was peeking notification. U can access it through, settings, apps, then select the notification settings for each app...it's like toast notification. If you Google it or check lg update page it details this feature as part of update, but it's not working for me
If its the one where screens off andnslide down to see notifs. Lock screen must be enabled

To start - I do know that there are several ways to prevent lock screen notifications.
1) In the main Notifications settings I have options for "On the lock screen":
- "Show all notification content"
- "Don't show notifications at all"
Of course this is all or nothing, so it isn't really very flexible.
2) Then, if I turn on Power notification controls I can set an app to "Level 2" which includes:
- Prevent full screen interruption
- Never peek
- Never make sound or vibrate
- Hide from lock screen
- Show at the bottom of the notification list
However this is almost totally useless as if I choose to restrict an app to Level 2 because I don't want it on the lock screen, I lose the ability for those notification to have any real type of visibility outside of the lock screen.
It appears that stock N has a switch for each app to control whether that app can show notification on the lock screen or not. Here is one such example.
This is very problematic for an app such as Gmail (or any mail app). I want my e-mail notifications to always make a sound/vibrate, etc...but I don't want the details of the e-mails to show in the lockscreen.
Now I have noticed that if I set a lockscreen with a secure option (other than "swipe"), that there is an option to hide notifications with secure content. In this case, my mail notifications show up without details and simply say "content hidden."
This last option gets me a reasonable result, but it requires me to set a secure lock screen. I realize that without a secure lockscreen anyone can simply open your phone and read the e-mail anyway...but it would be very nice to have the options from stock N that simply allow you to disable a particular app's ability to just show on the lock screen.
Ideas?
You must not of understood the settings. What you mentioned was exactly what your trying to achieve.

That setting is applied per app and would disable notifications from that app on the lock screen.
Update:
I think I see the confusion. Your accessing the Global Notifications settings and not individually selecting the app before changing that setting. The one you found controls all Notifications. Go into the app like this and change the setting per app.
(GOTO Settings>Notifications>Select App you want and then set On the Lock Screen to Do not show notifications at all(on the lock screen, this app only))
Correct me if I'm wrong but you just want no notifications from a particular app, only on the lock screen but want normal notifications to work while it's not locked. This would achieve that.
Just started using Oreo, and have found something annoying and hoping I'm just missing a setting or something.
In Messages (and every other app so far) I have the option to Alert and Pop-up, or just alert without the pop up notification.
When I choose to just alert, I expect the notification Drop down to still show content. However, it's hidden unless I choose to notify with pop-up. I can't find a middle ground.
Checked security settings, and the only thing related is to hide content on the lock screen.
Anyone have any thoughts or advice on this?
I'm on CRAF

Having same problem. No tone. Just icon ontop. App is not sleeping or restricted at all
It is not a perfect solution but use the Edge Lighting. It will light up the entire edges green if you choose applications colour and show a popup with the message which can be interacted with. As an addition you can turn AOD on and it will show an icon with the notification.
