Hi Sieghard,

You answered my question. No one told me they were pushing the lock button. 
They all made it sound like they were just resting their finger on the home 
button and the iPhone was opening up to the icon screen. If I have raise to 
wake feature on and I pick up the phone and rest my finger on the home button 
it opens to the icon screen. If I turn off raise to wake and put my finger on 
the home button it does not open it. But like you said if I push the lock 
button then put my finger on the home button it will go to the icon screen. All 
of the other emails made it sound like they just rested their finger on the 
home button and their iPhone open up to the icon screen. No one said they 
pushed the lock screen button before resting their finger on the home button. 

Thanks Sieghard for your explanation as that explains to me what I needed to 
know.

Ed

Hi Ed,

 

I think everybody is not understanding what you want to do unless it is me that 
doesn’t understand.

If your phone is locked just resting your finger on the home button without 
pushing it down will not unlock anybody’s phone whether you have “Rest finger 
to open” turned on or not.

What Jeffrey and Sean probably meant to say is that with this feature turned 
on, the phone will unlock when you simply rest your finger on the home button 
without pushing it, but you do first have to be on the lock screen and in order 
to bring up the lock screen you have to wake up your phone by pressing the 
power/sleep button on the side or the home button. Of course if you press the 
home button with one of the fingers that is registered for Touch Id simply 
pressing it will most likely unlock your phone especially if you have a 6S/6S 
Plus or 7/7 Plus. It will also with the 5S, 6 and 6 Plus, but these are first 
generation sensors and they are slower.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Hi Shawn,

I turned off raise to wake and then rebooted my phone. Still will not open by 
just resting my finger on the home button. If I push the home button down then 
it will open to the icon screen. I have a friend that also has a 6s plus and 
his does the same thing as mine. When he turns off raise to wake it will not 
open by just resting his finger on the home button. So once again I cannot 
figure out why this does not work on three iPhones that I have tried it on. Any 
other ideas?

Ed

Hi Ed. I have the iPhone SE which has the same specks as the 6S and turned 
raise to wake off. I put it on a flat surface like you said and I was able to 
unlock my phone with rest finger on home turned on. Maybe try performing a hard 
reset by holding home and power buttons and see if that works. And Jeffry, 
raise to wake is a hardware specific setting. It's only available on the iPhone 
6S, SE and of course 7.

Hi, I do have finger print access  turn on. It will open my iPhone if I push 
down on the home button. I am still wondering if a person can just rest your 
finger on the home button to have it open without having the raise to wake 
feature on. If I turn on raise to wake and I pick up my iPhone and rest my 
finger on the home button it will open up to the icon screen. If I turn off 
raise to wake then rest my finger on the home button it will not open my 
IPhone. So I am thinking that you have to have the raise to wake feature turned 
on for the rest finger on the home button to work. If I am wrong please correct 
my thinking.

Hi,

 

I believe you have to have fingerprint access turned on for this to work.  At 
least scanning for info on this seems to indicate that is how it works.

Hi,

If you go and turn raise to wake off then when you just put your finger on the 
home button it does not open the iPhone. I want to be able to open the iPhone 
without having to push in the home button. So your suggestion to turn off raise 
to wake does not allow me to rest my finger on the home button to open the 
iPhone. 

Any other suggestions.

Go to setting and then display and brightness and turn raise to wake off.

Hi Group,

I have the raise to wake feature on and rest to open feature on. So when I pick 
up my iPhone the screen comes on and gives the time and  date etc. Then if I 
rest my finger on the home button it will open my iPhone to the icon screen. My 
question is there a way to  be able to leave the iPhone flat on my desk and 
rest my finger on the home button to have it open to the icon screen? Another 
words I do not want to have the raise to wake feature on. I just want to be 
able to rest my finger on the home button to have my iPhone come on to the icon 
screen.

Any suggestion on how to do this would be appreciated.

Ed
