On the previous iPhones with Touch ID, we were able to unlock our phone without pressing the home button after getting recognized by Touch ID.
I’m missing this feature on the new IPhone X with Face ID. I would love to be able to unlock my phone without swiping up.
What do you guys think about this?
Oh. If you were smart you would post at the link below where Apple would read it since they are the only ones who can change this.
Thank you for the information, I have already given the feedback to that link. I just wanted to get the topic started, but i guess this is more a trouble shoot forum than a new-idea forum or something similar.
No problem with that tho. Just hoping this becomes a feature ones..
That would imply that the iPhone with Touch ID uses one step less, because activating the phone(pressing the home button) and using touch id happens at the same time.
Just looking from a productivity / efficiency aspect, the iPhone X is slower to use.
Looking at the phone is instantaneous. Swiping up takes no more time than getting the finger print to register with Touch ID. In fact. given we have an iPX and one phone with Touch ID. I can get in the iPX faster.
But what difference does any of this make?. This is how Apple chose to make things work on iPhone X. Arguing one over the other is pointless. Nothing anyone says here will make Apple change anything. The phone is operating as designed, but if anyone thinks it's a monumental issue, let Apple know via this link: Feedback - iPhone - Apple
You're responses are not helpful.
1. Put in passcode and the phone goes to the home screen.
2. Use touch ID and the phone goes to the home screen.
3. Use Face ID and then you have to swipe up to go to the home screen.
That's not right; it requires an addition action that takes a second or more.
That might not be a big deal, but, the screen locks in 30 seconds and you have to unlock it again immediately.
***There is a setting for require passcode, but immediately is the only choice and you can't uncheck it.
So, If I'm doing something that I'm using my phone for and I don't touch the screen every 30 I have to interrupt what I'm doing to mess with the phone.. or not use face ID.
You keep bringing that argument back, but it is simply not true:

I think the community can/should give feedback to apple, especially since this iPhone is the first iPhone with Face ID.
If they listen is up to them

With that logic the Iphone X with Face ID has 3 steps involved.
1. Pick up phone
2. Use Face ID
2 3. Swipe up.
Your step #2 is superfluous ... by picking up your phone and looking at it, your phone is unlocked and ready for swiping to get to your home screen, there is no "using" Face ID as if you have to do anything special. Once you do it a few times it is 2nd nature and a non-issue in actual use.

Continuous Improvement.... why not take it down to one step.
Why not tell the people who actually have the power to make that happen if they so chose? Send your feedback to Apple.
Yes. I see Apple's implementation here as an attempt to prevent erroneous dialing as has been the case from the start.
I had originally called this be the common name for it when it was first introduced but that really didn't sound all that good so I reworded it.
You should schedule an appointment at your Apple Store Genius Bar to have your phone evaluated. When I look at my phone, the unlock symbol appears instantly. If you are staring at your phone waiting for the unlock symbol, there's something clearly wrong.

Your Logic is wrong if touching home button while holding the phone is a step then looking at the phone to unlock it is a step also how on earth touching home button and swiping up is the same swiping really is inconvenious
Its rather presumptuous to stay that someone else's preference is wrong. You have a preference. Apple has chosen to do something other than that. You can learn to live with it or get a different phone. Also, you should submit feedback.

Yes is annoying too many step to unlock the screen , I was more happy With my iPhone 7
I'm sure you could sell your iPhone X for pretty close to enough money to purchase another iPhone 7 if it was more to your liking.
The Side button should just be pressed once and then Face ID opens the phone. So it is more of an open/close toggle (not just close). There should be no need to press the Sude button, use Face ID, and then swipe to open.
I agree with you. The fact that I have to swipe up after Face ID is very annoying. Why not just open to app screen like Touch ID? C'mon Apple, why the extra, unnecessary step?
Apple is not here
Please post at Feedback - iPhone - Apple
Personally, I see your complaint as rather picayunish.
