I never knew you could get back to the playback and pause features that way. I also am using a 4S. Afterplaying a book and locking the phone, I did a double push of the home button and was brought back to the locked screen. I was on slide to open. As a swiped to the left, I did get to the controls for the book and was able to pause it. Love the feature. This is using the Audible app. So it appears I'm not having the same problem that you are. Thanks for that tip. I hope it worsk for you. ----- Original Message ----- From: Sieghard Weitzel To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Monday, September 24, 2012 10:14 PM Subject: I found a new missing item in iOS 6 *sniff*
Hello, Interesting nobody noticed this before and brought it up. I often used to double press the home key when my phone was locked and I was playing an audio book. This always brought up the playback controls like Previous, Play/Pause, next as well as volume and Airplay. I always found this an easy and quick method to Pause an audio book or Podcast if somebody came to the door or when I just wanted to stop it for another reason as I didn't have to unlock my phone. Tonight a friend came to the door and I did what I usually do and was surprised to notice that a double press of the home button when the phone is locked now does exactly the same as a single press and that is it shows the unlock control, it shows what's currently playing and it has, of course, the Camera button. No more playback controls. I use an iPhone 4S with iOS 6 and it would be good to know if this is a universal change or bug or if for some people who use an iPhone 4 or who already received their 5 this still works. I really don't know why Apple would get rid of this as it was such a convenient way to get quick access to playback controls, volume and Airplay.
