I want to be able to unlock my phone when I’m wearing touch screen compatible gloves. Touch ID doesn’t work with gloves. When I tap the home button to unlock, (sometimes) the phone doesn’t do anything. Just stays on the lock screen. This behavior is inconsistent.
If I hold down the home button it activates Siri.
When this is happening, it doesn’t matter how much I mash the home button, I cannot get the phone to give me the option to use my passcode. I have to take my gloves off and use Touch ID.
On some occasions there is a tap here to use passcode link but I don’t know what the logic is to get that link to appear.
Any advice?
iPhone SE
iOS 11.2.6
