Nancy, I" think he was confused about what you were saying. I have a 7 and it
does the same thing. I know when the phone is turned off that when turned back
on it requires a pass code. However, I have re-done my fingerprints about 5

You can still read emails separately, just flick down when you are on the main
message of a thread until you come to where it says "Expand", then double tap
and the thread expands and you can read each email, delete it and so on.
I am not beta testing right now but I am prety sure Apple is aware

I do not believe there is a way to stop this.
That is what made some dictionary apps useless because about every word in a

Nancy, as long as the fingerprint is active the reason why it's asking you for
the passcode, because it wants you to use the fingerprint or the passcode so
