Private mode (Show only text/call received) #195

Would be great have the option to enable a 'private mode' in which the 
notification would only display 'New SMS received' or 'Incoming call' without 
any more information, for those moments you let a friend use your computer or 
someone is watching close to you.

Good idea, it'll be in next release of the multiplatform desktop app. Maybe, in 
future we can modify the android app to not even send contact details on 
private mode.

IMHO keeping the option only on the desktop app is simplest and less confusing 
for the user. Also, if this is a protection for the display, it makes sense to 
be on the side that displays it.

Ok, I've already committed changes to svn, we can close this now.

I believe private mode should be initiated from the phone or at least locked on 
the desktop app. The whole idea is to hide the information for privacy reasons, 
but anyone can enable it if they have access to the computer.

I think the phone should have this option too so we can remove it from the 
desktop app. Should we reopen this issue?

I agree with lehphyro and gavsiu.

Agreed; surely it should be the user of the phone that determines the privacy 
setting!

Also, the battery level notification should be always visible our at least 
appear as an independent option, as it's not as confidential as texts/calls.
