I just HATE it . that i have to press the Home button to unlock .

I know it happens to me and many out there that your iPhone doesn’t unlock after a few press especially in situation when you had have a few drinks , urgently wanting to input some notes , trying email your boss , whatsapp your friend who is late again , take another selfie or  just after a long day at work you wanna read some news.

the solution to that ? —- REST FINGER TO OPEN .

Below are steps on how you can now press the Home button and, with a single press, both awake and unlock your iOS device.

 

The new iOS 10 update kills off the iconic “Slide to Unlock” lock screen and forces you to push to unlock. If you are sick of pushing, here’s how to get the old iPhone unlock behavior back.

Apple’s iOS 10 update replaces iOS 9.3.5 and it does so with a number of new features including big changes to Messages, Maps, Music, and the lock screen. The changes to the lock screen are pretty significant.

You can now use a “Raise to Wake” feature to glance at your phone when you pick it up. You can swipe left to open the camera. Notifications are improved. And Apple’s replaced the “Slide to Unlock” functionality with “Press home to unlock.”

If after some time you decide you can no longer tolerate pressing down on the home button every time you want to unlock your iPhone, use these steps to get around it.

You can’t bring “Slide to Unlock” back to the home screen but you can use Touch ID to bypass the “Press home to unlock” function. Here’s how to do that

First, tap on Settings. Head to General.

After that, you’ll want to head into Accessibility.

Then to Home Button

From there, you’ll want to toggle “Rest Finger to Open” on.

With this feature turned on you’ll be able to open your device by resting your finger on your home button. You can still press down on the home button to open your iPhone but you now have a couple of options instead of one.
