Also known as: notification center evidence, alert leftovers

Last updated August 9, 2026

Definition

Notification artifacts are leftovers from alerts — previews, timestamps, and app identifiers — that may remain even when a message body was deleted from the main app.

Real-World Example

A lock-screen notification preview cached by the OS can still show a deleted chat snippet during examination.
