Hi,

Quick story. I lost my phone. I'm tracking it on iCloud currently and the phone is in lost mode. I searched and read apples response. My question is:

Will text messages, alerts, emails etc show up on the home screen?

I don't have my phone to test that out. I do have a lock on my phone.

p.s. if your tracking it and it's moving and they've not responded to the lost message then assume it's not coming back

Did you lock it? Texts and such should go through but they shouldn't be able to read them as long as you locked it.
