A ‘At a Glance’ notification screen possibility for iPhone

A recent patent application was leaked onto the internet and it shows Apple’s plan to implement a “At a Glance” notification screen to the iPhone. Apparently, the new notification screen will allow users to quickly jump to a desired notification by pressing on the corresponding notification. On current iPhones and iPhone 3Gs, the notification screen disappears when the phone is unlocked. This will deem important when 3rd party “push” notifications are activated. And we can safely assume that 3rd party applications would increase, so having this “At a Glance” notification screen would be very useful. Apple has yet to give out an official statement regarding this patent application. Please stay tuned!
