Go to notification management,
Choose the app you want to config, and choose "hide notif content" for lockscreen option

I'm using the Nexus 5 with Lollipop and wanted to disable lock screen notifications for specific apps (but not the normal notifications that go in the notification bar). Is this possible? The only option I can find is one that disables the notifications for that specific app in both the lock screen and the notification bar which is not what I want.
TIA
You can hide the content of a notification on the lockscreen by going to settings->notifications->notifications on lockscreen, then select the app and you should see the options.

Thanks for the reply but I don't have that option. I'm using the Nexus 5 with Lollipop (OTA update). Build LRX210. The exact options I have are Settings->Sound & notification. I have attached screen shots of the settings I see under there.
Any ideas what's going on and why I'm seeing different settings to you?
Click on "App notifications", I was not sure, how it was named in English as I have German set as my phone language.

Thanks for the quick reply. I have already looked under there but there is nothing to control this. There is 2 or 3 settings under each app depending on the setting you have for When Device Is Locked.
I have set mine to Hide Sensitive Notification Content so see the attached image for what I see with this option enabled. If I change the setting to Show All Notification Content then a third option appears (as can be seen by the other attached image).
The third option does not remove the notification from the lock screen, it only removes the sensitive information so that's not what I wanted.
Any other thoughts?
Is there a way to hide the notification contents displayed on the lock screen?
You can switch off the notifications in the lock screen per app, but it's a tedious process. I would be interested in an easier method as well.

Yes it is. I was looking for it & I was afraid to be disappointed but I found it.
Go to:
Settings> Apps & Notifications> Notifications Management, then click the three dots up in the corner of the screen. You'll find it there
It has changed now!
It is
Settings -> Notifications -> Lock screen notifications -> Selection:
1) Show
2) Do not show
3) Show but hide contents

Huawei disabled that feature from the last couple of updates for all devices citing privacy issues.
Do you know if there is any way of getting around that, is there any third party software that could re-enable expanding notifications on the lock screen - it's one thing I really miss having just upgraded from a Nexus 5X!

Yea i have novalauncher but it doesn't affect lock screen. i think you need lockscreen launcher but I don't want to change. Huawei should give the option in lockscreen settings
If you have face unlock enabled, go to settings - security - face unlock and disable smart lock screen notifications
Honor\huawei has indeed screwed this up. faceunlock or pin or etc is not the problem.
The problem is at lock screen, you can see a notification for whatsapp
If it is just a single message, you're fine. You can read it.
But if it is multiple messages or multi line, you can't, as it only shows amount of messages notifications, and the FIRST line of the message.
You can't expand the notification to read the rest. You end up having to unlock and go into whatsapp to read it.
*Sometimes you just want to read the messages, without ending up showing yourself last online in WhatsApp........
Ifyou have enabled face unlock and swipe to get to the launcher you can press the power button, the phone will recognize your face and then you can pull down the notifications.
Same if you want to skip a song at spotify etc.

Can't. It doesn't work.
Steps.
1. Press power button or lift phone to start face unlock
2. U can see whatsapp notifications on the lock screen, but they are grouped up. Meaning, can't expand to see contents
3. Face unlock recognizes your face. You can now able to slide to unlock
4. Still, the notifications can't be accessed or expanded to read full content

The same issue here. My wife's Honor 10 after customization completely lost lockscreen notifications and camera shortcut too. I spent long time trying to solve this in notification settings but failed- non app like default SMS, WhatsApp or Messenger displays notification on lockscreen. Do you have any advice please?

Hello. Notifications currently aren't working with custom lockscreen themes. Devs from honor said it was for higher security. I hate to say that the only way to see notifications on lockscreen is to change lockscreen theme to default, just lockscreen is enough though, you can keep other things like icons etc in whatever theme you want. I personally hate the clock being at the bottom of screen but there is no other way for notifications to show up properly atm. I also tried custom lockscreen 'launchers' but they're bugged. Hope this helps.
Tested working on Huawei View10, You can enable full message content on lock screen by going to phone settings > security & Privacy > Face Unlock > and disable "smart lock screen notification". These seem to be a bad description on Huawei part because you would think this turns off notifications on lock screen but it only limits the content on lock screen for security purposes. The only time i need to expand my messages on lock screen is when phone is sitting on desk and i don't want to lift the phone to unlock it in order to read my notification. Lock screen notification can be set for apps separately. Hope this helps.
Like any other device I am not able to quick reply on WhatsApp from notification pannel anyone please help me on this.
It does work, sometimes you just got to pull that particular chat notification down from its spot and it'll show the option to reply.

Thnks
1-
I don't think it works from lock screen.
I'm able to pull down and click reply and then it tries to unlock
2- not able to see content? (I'm assuming this is from lock screen)
Go to app settings , manage notifications , go inside one of the channels and you'll have an option hide content in lock screen, turn that off (if not already).
Hi,
I am really struggling to view the contents of the WhatsApp messages by only unlock lock screen with face id. I am a person who like to view the message first without open whatsapp apps.
Any ideas on how?
Thanks in advance.
security&privacy - face recognition - unlock divice and you can choose slide to unlock
still not working. cannot view content of whatsapp.
Not sure since I'm Dutch but I do have the option to show the message once my face is recognized. You should have it to.

Because you locked the app using face id. If you wanted to view from lockscreen. You just double tap the WhatsApp notification on lock screen. It will unlock the phone and go into home screen and show you the notification without opening the app

yup. i locked the app but before this new update (EMUI 9.1.0.300) i can view my wtsapp notification content without touch anything on lockscreen. just like 'smart notification'. but now it seem has removed the smart lock notification from face id setting. so is there because of the huawei policy or anything else?
Something related or they simply make it more secure. As now app can be locked using just face id / fingerprint / pattern / passcode or all together.
So I guess they remove the function for better reliability
just watch the notification in the pull down hahaha
Problem solved.
I deactivated the app lock for whatsapp app and unlock just using face id.
Thank you
