Notification for messages?

[WPCentral Question]

I understand there is no glance screen for the 930 but how does the phone alert you if you receive a message? From my understanding there is neither notification light? I generally only use my phones on silent so a notification of some sort would be good.

Vibrate, ringtone, and toast notification. The screen will also turn on briefly if it was turned off previously.

To check if you missed a text, you should set up a notification icon on your lock screen. A small number will appear in that designated location if you have it set up properly. Also on 8.1 you can swipe down the notification center to see your notifications in there as well.

In notifications+action setting in your phone, you can change how each individual app notifies you.
