# Hide notifications

By default, your computer will display message notifications even when your screen is locked. For example, if someone sends you an instant message while you are away from your computer, a notification will pop-up on your screen. The text of that person's message will appear even though your screen is locked.

You may wish to turn this feature off to keep your messages more private.

# To turn off notifications when your screen is locked:

Click your name in the top bar.

Select Settings Privacy Screen Lock.

Set the Show Notifications slider to Off.
