Philip Houska iOS 10, a new operating system for mobile devices from Apple, it really brings a lot of changes. Some are negligible, some are very significant. The new unlocking system belongs to the second category. The Slide to Unlock function has disappeared, replaced by the necessary press of the Home button. However, within iOS 10 there is an option to return at least partially to the original system.
Breaking down the long-standing habits that users have to get used to in iOS 10, we have detailed broken down in our big review of iOS 10. Thanks to various innovations, the locked screen works in a completely different way, on which many more operations can be performed, and thus the iconic unlocking by swiping the screen has also fallen victim. Now you need to unlock the phone by placing your finger on the Home button (Touch ID) and then pressing it again. Only then will you find yourself on the main desktop with icons.
With this method, Apple tries to force users to use the new interface of widgets on the locked screen and the ability to quickly respond to incoming notifications. However, many users complain that they cannot get used to the new unlock system in the first days after installing iOS 10. Of course, Apple probably expected that.
In iOS 10 Settings, there is an option to modify the operation of the Home button during the unlocking mechanism. V Settings > General > Accessibility > Desktop button you can check the option Activate by placing your finger (Rest Finger to Open), which ensures that in order to unlock an iPhone or iPad on iOS 10, it is enough to just place your finger on the Home button, and you no longer need to press it.
It is necessary to mention that this option is only available for iPhones and iPads with Touch ID. In addition, those who have an iPhone 6S, 7 or SE have the option in iOS 10 to have their iPhone screen light up as soon as they pick it up. Then, in the case of activating the above-mentioned option, the user does not have to press any button at all to get to the main screen, he just needs to put his finger on it to verify it.
I'd like to ask an off topic question. Are any of you having problems with the back button in iMessage? It reacts like that to me after 2-3 attempts. At the same time, I have no problem with it across the entire system.
The quick reply to SMS from the lock screen doesn't work for me - sometimes I send a reply, it looks ok, but after 'sending' the dialog immediately disappears but nothing is sent. When I go to the SMS messages, my reply is not there at all.
it seems to me that imessage cells are blocked. they overpaid for it with crap and it works kind of half-assed
Exactly, if they separated the classic messages from the new birds and finally maybe added delivery notes for SMS, I would be much more grateful. And I encountered the slow response of the arrow back to the conversation list right after upgrading to 10, sometimes it works fine, other times it takes the second or third try.
Great tip. Thanks for him. I would still need advice on the spotlight. On iOS 9 it normally showed me answers to questions like 1 USD, 1 Euro, 10 ft, 5 lb, etc. But nothing in iOS 10. I have a 5S.
Hello, do you have Calculator enabled in Search Results (Settings > General > Spotlight Search)? It is not activated natively.
Cheers! Thanks a lot.
I have the option to activate by placing a finger enabled, but I still have to press it. Where is the betrayal? Thank you
Finger activation works for me only when the screen turns on... for example by moving the phone.
I have a 6Splus. Problem solved. After the previous partial reset of the phone to the factory values, when after switching to iOS 10, notes were closing automatically, I had to perform a fingerprint scan again. ?
That's how bad it works for the money... oh my
So I was very disappointed with the new lock screen. I'm using a passcode lock and I have to press HB twice to get to it on my iPhone 6. Unfortunately, it's slow... the first time the display lights up and when it lights up, the code is displayed on the second press.
Hello. I have SE and downloaded iOS10. However, setting the button so that I don't have to press the "home" button doesn't work (I have according to the description). The iPhone lights up but turns off when you put your finger on it. I have set a code lock and a protective glass over the display. Does anyone have a similar experience? Thanks a lot
I have an iPhone 6, I have this function turned off, and I still only need to put my finger on it, and I just want to press it 1 more time, any advice?:-)
