Samsung Galaxy S9: How To Turn ON And OFF Preview Message

One thing that impresses most about message shortcuts is the ability to preview some of the contents of a message without opening the message itself. The ability to preview messages on your Samsung Galaxy S9 is impressive and the best part is that you can actually preview a message with the lock screen on. But you can only enjoy this feature by enabling it in the notification bar of your Samsung Galaxy S9. If you ever feel the need to take a peep at your message in public where someone might be waiting to read your message as soon as you open it fully, you need to try the message preview feature.

The preview message feature saves you a lot of time. But in some instances, it can be a breach of privacy because someone else can get an idea of your message’s content by reading the preview without having to unlock your device. The good news is that enabling and disabling the preview message feature is a reversible process so you can make do with it if you really want to or you can do away with it if you don’t really require it. This is possible by turning it ON or OFF from your notification bar settings.

The steps below provide a simplified guide on how to turn on and off the preview message feature on your Samsung Galaxy S9 smartphone.
