I have yet to have this problem again, I have only checked my settings to ensure password pin and fingerprint was still enabled but already knew it was due to the fact it only happen TWICE and every other time did require my passwords but also did a power cycle where I powered it off for 2 minutes then back on and so far it has required the pin or fingerprint every time on new notifications but if this happens again I will update but this is a very concerning bug with the new 9.3.3 operating system.

Also another 9.3.3 bug I have come across is the auto brightness... today it went to FULL bright in my supervisors office at work. Couldn't get it to adapt correctly, had to turn auto off then back on before it corrected itself.

Then tonight at home went into my bedroom and opened up the iPhone to the lock screen and again it was MAX bright then i unlocked it and still was on MAX bright. Had to AGAIN un-tick AUTO brightness then re-tick before it would fix itself. VERY frustrating bug.

...

I would like to report so far I have NOT again had the "not asking/requiring of my pin or fingerprint" to unlock the phone when swiping a notification from lock screen. Let's hope that's gone but who knows....
