Bug Description

There should be an option to allow or not allow the apps to send information to the circle lock screen. There are some things I want to see, but others I don't want to see. So a functionality to make that selection, is missing.

Thanks!

:)

Thanks, unsure if that should be an application settings of if we should have a system list like we do for location. Matthew, do you have any design opinion on the topic?

I think this is better to have an system option. Because we can set them all at once or unset them all at once. By the way, if we have an app that sends info to the lock screen, we can remove the app but the statistics remains on the lock screen
