I've been pretty happy with this phone for the past week (you can check my Amazon review if you're thinking about it yourself).

There's only 1 small problem: on this phone, I can't interact with notifications on the locksreen. I can see them, and double tap them to be prompted to unlock the phone, but I can't, say, reply to a text on the lockscreen. I have to unlock, and then I can reply either from the notification or from inside the app. My previous Moto E4 on 7.1 would let me reply to texts from the locked lockscreen.

I'm wondering, is this something I need to setup on Android 8? Maybe it's an OS change? Or a BLU decision? It's far from a deal breaker, but it'd be nice to not have to unlock the phone when I want to quick-reply a text from the notification.
