Sep 17, 2016 9:52 AM in response to isaac73by darren.s,Hi issac73,
Thanks for updating to iOS 10! I see that you are unable to snooze your Calendar events from the lock screen. Below you will find some great tips on handling your Notifications while the iPhone is locked.Notifications on your Lock screen
In iOS 10, you can interact with notifications on the Lock screen to catch up on news, respond to messages, and more without unlocking your device.
Here are some ways you can view and interact with notifications from the Lock screen:
To view your lock screen, press the Home button or Sleep/Wake button. If you have an iPhone 6s or later, lift your device to see the Lock screen.
To respond to a notification, swipe left over it, then tap respond. If you have an iPhone 6s or later, use can use 3D Touch. Just press deeply on the notification, then respond.
To open the app to respond, swipe right over the notification.
Use Notifications on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
These tips should assist you with getting the best from your Notifications on your lock screen. Thanks for using Apple Support Communities to post your question. Have a great day. -
Sep 17, 2016 3:30 PM in response to darren.sby rickpower83,Darren, your reply doesn't answer Isaac's question regarding being able to snooze calendar alerts as in the previous iOS.
Let me address the problem again:
1. When on a phonecall, and the calendar alert is displayed (now at the top, instead of centre of screen, which by the way is confusingly similar to a banner), the user is able to pull down on the alert, and select snooze.
2. This is where the problem is: when the phone is locked, and an Alert pop-up, there is no snooze function here. I see this as something that needs to be reintroduced pronto, as its a feature that many calendar users will have been dependent on over the years.
Please fix.

Sep 18, 2016 3:01 PM in response to isaac73by lseley,Same problem here. While on the lock screen if I slide a reminder the only options are VIEW and CLEAR, there is no SNOOZE option. This is a big deal for me as well. The way it is now it appears we have to go to the calendar entry and manually change the start time in order to get a new reminder. If we have multiple reminders that need to be snoozed at at the same time then items will get missed.

Sep 22, 2016 9:48 PM in response to lseleyby jwCo3,You CAN snooze from the lock screen, it just involves one more step:
- Swipe left for "VIEW"
- then on the calendar snippet, do "SNOOZE"
Yes would've been nice to do Snooze without going to View first

Oct 1, 2016 5:14 AM in response to isaac73by aagg03,Yes. I agree. Entirely.
Yes, it was alarming (pun intended) to discover that the ability to snooze a Calendar
alert seemled to be gone in iOS 10.
Yes, this did result in losing track of a few Reminders, unless one had the presence
of mind to remember and edit all Reminders that had popped up.
Yes, jw, I also (eventually) discovered that if you swipe left on the lock screen, this
does reveal a snooze option.
Yes, Rick, and thanks for the insight, pulling down on a calendar alert while
unlocked also will reveal a snooze option. FYI for everyone, this is not just
on calls, but appears to work on other screens, such as while typing a
response on a forum.
Yes, I agree that alerts now look confusingly similar to banners. Yes, it is
frustrating to do extra steps to reveal an option that was easily accessible
before. And may I point out that these steps are now contradictory?
Although swiping left and choosing View then Snooze works while locked,
doing so while unlocked brings you into the event and skips any snooze
option (if you forget you have to pull down instead). All of which are not
good UI design and not intuitive, points on which Apple supposedly prides
themselves.
And finally, yes, darren did not answer the original question posed by Isaacs,
which is not good customer service … which is another point on which Apple
supposedly prides themselves.
P.S. Has anyone else ever thought it would be neato-peachy-keen if Apple
formatted their own forums to render in a more viewable form on their own
mobile devices in their own mobile browser? Not that I don't *adore* losing
my posts, sliding back-and-forth, wrapping in bizarre ways, adding manual
line breaks to make my text fit on my screen, having extra spaces inexplicably
inserted between words, etc.

Oct 3, 2016 11:16 AM in response to jwCo3by isaac73,I agree with you, but this was not existing on iOS v10.0.1.
Today, after the v10.0.2 release a couple of days ago, this issue has been addressed. However, as most of the people in this email thread have mentioned, the end user experience seems to be not a priority for Apple these days, which really contradicts their historical strategy in the market.
Looking forward to see if Apple listen to some of these comments.
Thanks to everyone that acknowledged this issue.

Oct 7, 2016 9:57 AM in response to aagg03by barbara58,i have 10.0.2 and if i swipe left in lock screen, all I get is password request, then opens the event, no snooze...nor can i get to snooze when i swipe from top - same thing - just wants to open the event
I did not know you could click on View then get snooze- this was VERY helpful...
hoping apple goes back to a one-step snooze access for those of us who rely heavily on our calendar snoozes!!

Oct 13, 2016 9:58 AM in response to isaac73by oxbox,I found the snooze option relatively quickly, agreed, I prefer the single click option. however I have a bigger problem. When I snooze an event it never seems to come back. How long is snooze set to by default? Is it possible to adjust the snooze time? any idea why my snooze works more like a clear?

Oct 13, 2016 10:44 AM in response to oxboxby d_bobs,I am having the same problem. When I snooze alerts they never come back. Fantastical has a great feature which allows you to snooze alerts for 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 1 hour. I would like to use the native calendar but this issue is a big deal.

Oct 13, 2016 10:50 AM in response to oxboxby aagg03,Oxbox, I am finding posts that say the default time should be 9 minutes, but Apple doesn't give us a way to change it (?!?!),
