Need to disable Notification Center and Siri access from the Lock screen? Here's how in iOS 8!

<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p><a href='http://www.imore.com/need-disable-notification-center-control-siri-access-lock-screen-heres-how-ios-8' title="Need to disable Notification Center and Siri access from the Lock screen?

However, you can disable these options in the Settings app if you choose to. While Control Center access hasn't changed, many readers have been asking me how to restrict access to <a href="http://www.imore.com/siri" title="Siri commands, tricks, apps, help, and how-to">Siri[/url] and Notification Center in <a href="http://www.imore.com/ios-8" title="iOS 8 news, rumors, speculation">iOS 8[/url] since they aren't seeing the options anymore. Fear not, they aren't gone, they've just moved!</p> <!--break--> <h2>How to turn off access to Notification Center and Siri from the Lock screen</h2> <ol><li>Launch the <strong>Settings app</strong> on your iPhone or iPad running iOS 8 or higher. </li> <li>Tap on <strong>Touch ID &amp; Passcode</strong>.</li> <li>Enter your <strong>passcode</strong> when prompted in order to continue. </li> <li>Scroll down to the <strong>Allow Access When Locked Section</strong>. </li> </ol><p><a href='http://www.imore.com/need-disable-notification-center-control-siri-access-lock-screen-heres-how-ios-8' title="Need to disable Notification Center and Siri access from the Lock screen?

This means no one can see any incoming notifications you receive if they pull down the Notification Center shade on the Lock screen</li> <li>Siri - Disable access to Siri altogether until your iPhone or iPad is unlocked</li> <li>Passbook - Disallows the use of any Passbook cards from the Lock screen unless the passcode is entered first</li> <li>Replay with Message - iOS 8 allows you to quick reply to messages by pulling down on them. Turning this setting to <strong>Off</strong> guarantees that no one can respond to a message from your Lock screen unless a passcode is entered first. </li> </ul></div></div></div><div id="comment-wrapper-nid-27506"></div><img width='1' height='1' src='http://tipb.com.feedsportal.com/c/33998/f/616881/s/3f2d1b2c/sc/4/mf.gif' border='0'/><br clear='all'/>
