Q: does touching the home button wakes up the iPhone 5s or do we physically have to Click on Home Button or Sleep/Wake button and then use touch id?

does touching the home button wakes up the iphone 5S or do we physically have to Click on Home Button or Sleep/Wake button and then use touch id?

What I am trying to say is that each time I have to click on the home button to wake up the iphone 5s and then it scans my print and logs me in the phone however I was hoping that by just putting the finger on the button will do the whole thing of waking up + unlocking the phone,

Can anyone please let me know if I am wrong or if I am right? since I just bought iphone 5s and I am not sure if the sensor is working or not the way it should be.

iPhone 4, iOS 5, Factory Unlocked IPhone

    It sounds like it is working the way it should be. You do have to click one of the two buttons. The closest thing to doing it as a single operation is to click the Home button but don't remove your finger from the button (i.e., leave your finger lightly on the button immediately after clicking it).
