You can customize your notifications preferences from here. For example, you can choose whether you get the notification right away, or if it shows up in a scheduled summary. You can also choose if it shows up on your Lock Screen, in your Notification Center, and/or as a banner across your screen when it comes in. Other features include being able to change your notification sound, whether your Messages app shows a badge when you have unread messages, if you want to show a text preview, and more.
