How to group app notifications on iPhone

The Notification Grouping feature on iPhone will help to tidy up the notification center and lock screen instead of displaying a lot of notifications from 1 application. This notification customization on iPhone is quite necessary, avoiding displaying too many notifications from an application on the screen. The notification grouping feature on iPhone has appeared since iOS 12 and in this article you will know how to enable grouping of application notifications on iPhone.
