In iOS 7 you can still make calls from the locked screen. Just swipe the missed call numbers to the right. Is this a bug?

How is it a security breach? You're free to turn off lock screen notifications for the phone app so that no one can do that.... even if they can, they can only call the number that called you... nothing else. (well, except for 900 or whatever the emergency services number is where you are, but that's required by law).

  • My phone doesn't make sounds in the lock screen and won't take calls

    Hi, for the past 2days my phone no longer plays the alert tone in the lock screen for text messages, calender events, facebook events, voicemail atert etc however does if the phone is unlocked and I am using it. Also, nobody can call me without it going straight to voicemail however if they call a second time then they can get through and it rings.
    I cannot find a thread where anybody else had a similar problem.
    I have turned everything and off a couple of times and have checked that everything is on (i never turned it off) and have done a hard reset. All I can think off is to completely restore my phone to factory setting but I don't want to lose all my stuff!
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks everyone!

  • When my iPhone 4S (with ios7) experiences a failed call while connected to my Bluetooth hands free in my car(screen locked) the failed call appears on the locked screen, as it should, then when I unlock the phone it automatically redials the failed call,

    When my iPhone 4S (with ios7) experiences a failed call while connected to my Bluetooth hands free in my car(screen locked) the failed call appears on the locked screen, as it should, the problem arises whenever I unlock the phone, it automatically redials the last failed call, it doesn't do this with missed calls that are on the locked screen, if any. It is really annoying as sometimes the phone doesn't respond to attempts to end the call before it connects to the number. I then have to explain that it was my phone and not me, I look like an idiot, which I don't really need any extra help with!! Does anyone have any ideas? I don't want to stop missed call from showing in the locked screen but it might be associated with the failed calls and therefore be the only resolution

    I have had the same issue which was driving me mad but think I have just found a way around it. In iOS 7 if you swipe up on the lock screen to access quick settings and go into timer then click the home button you get into the phone without calling the person back. Not a great 'fix' but hope it works for you. Come on Apple this isn't good enough, fix this bug otherwise you will lose your customers.

  • When I power up my ipad air the apple logo comes up like it should then the lock screen only comes up for a second or less so I can't swipe it fast enough.

    When I power up my iPad Air the Apple Logo comes up like it should then the lock screen only comes up for a second or less so I can't swipe it fast enough to get to the home page. The lock screen just disappears. I have to hit the sleep/wake or home button to bring the lock screen back up so I can swipe it. Have others found this situation with the iPad Air. I have an iPad 2 and it does not happen at all. The Apple store checked it out. One rep said to me this is unusual and had a tech check it out and they said this is normal. If the iPad is suppose to be user friendly, why this extra step to get to the lock screen? Are other owners of the iPad Air having the same problem? If so, what have you done to correct it?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.

  • I want to enter ICE numbers that can be seen from the lock screen of my iPhone. Any solutions?

    ICE numbers (In Case of Emergency) help first responders make important phone calls on your behalf in the event of an emergency. Typically these are stored as ICE numbers in your contacts, however, your contacts can't be accessed from a lock screen if you have set a password to get into your phone. Any wonderful solutions? I have developed one solution that works: I entered my ICE information into "Notes", and then took a screen shot of the information. Then I mailed it to myself and saved it in my camera roll. Once I selected the "photo" of my ICE information, I saved this as my lock screen photo. Now when anyone turns on my phone, they see my ICE numbers and they do not have access to any other parts of my phone.

    Having access to contact numbers stored in a phone without knowing the passcode sort of nullifies part of the reason for the passcode protection in the first place.  However, I do support giving users more freedom, os long as they understand the possible negative consequences.

    Hello,
    In Firefox 23, as part of an effort to simplify the Firefox options set and protect users from unintentially damaging their Firefox, the option to disable JavaScript was removed from the Firefox Options window.
    However, the option to disable JavaScript was not removed from Firefox entirely. You can still access it from about:config or by installing an add-on.
    '''about:config'''
    # In the address bar, type "about:config" (with no quotes), and press Enter.
    # Click "I'll be careful, I promise"
    # In the search bar, search for "javascript.enabled" (with no quotes).
    # Right click the result named "javascript.enabled" and click "Toggle". JavaScript is now disabled.
    To Re-enable JavaScript, repeat these steps.
    '''Add-ons'''
    You can alternatively install an add-on that lets you disable JavaScript, such as
    *[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/noscript/ No-Script] (to disable JavaScript on a per page basis, as required)
    *[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/quickjava/ QuickJava] (to easily disable and enable JavaScript, automatic loading of images, and other content)
    Thank you and I hope this helps!

  • Missed call notification in lock screen

    I have an iPhone 4S running iOS 5.0.1 and I discovered a potential security/privacy issue. Generally, when apps are configured so that they leave a notification on the lock screen, you can actually swipe the notification itself (rather than the "slide to unlock" bar at the bottom of the screen). When you do this, you are still asked for your password to unlock the phone, but you are taken directly to the associated app after the phone is unlocked. The problem is, when you swipe a "missed phone call" notification from the lock screen, the number is immediately dialed! You are not required to enter your password first!
    I won't go into the reasons why you possibly wouldn't want this to happen - I'll leave that to the individual to figure out. The point is, if the phone is locked, you should only be able to make non-emergency calls. Period. I called Apple Support to inquire about this issue and the best they could come up with is to set the phone app so that notifications aren't viewed from the lock screen (Home > Settings > Notifications > Phone > View in Lock Screen = OFF). While this does in fact secure my phone, it also takes the "Smart" out of "Smart Phone." You see, I would like to be able to take a quick glance at my phone to see if I missed any calls (without first unlocking it), then if I choose to return a missed call, I should have to enter my password before the call is made. In other words, the phone app should act like all the other apps in this regard. After all, other smart phones often have an LED that flashes to notify you of missing calls (without the need to unlock the phone first). Come on Apple, we know you can do better than this!
    It seems strange that if I get a notification on my lock screen about some breaking news from "The New York Times" app, that I have to enter my password to view it (after swiping the notification). It's as if the news is some big secret that we don't want "unauthorized users" to view, yet the phone allows anyone to return a call from my lock screen without first unlocking it.
    At the very least, there should be a setting to allow the user to choose how this action is handled.

  • Can't send photos taken via lock screen

    When I take a photo using the new quick access from the lock screen (which I LOVE), when I tap on the thumbnail and view the photo, the little button with the icon of the square and the arched arrow, the one I'd tap on to send the photo via email, text, etc., is missing.
    I then have to close the camera app and open Photos, locate the photo and send it from there.
    This doesn't happen if I take a photo the old fashioned way, swiping the lock screen and then opening the camera app. When I do it that way, take a photo, and tap on the thumbnail of the photo I just took to view it, the Share button is there.
    SO annoying and pretty much cancels out all the excitement of being able to access the camera quicker.
    Anyone else experiencing this? Is there anything I can do?
    Thanks!

    It would make sense in your case that you could send.
    But have you also noticed that you cannot see your other camera roll photos in the locked state?
    I can see where you are coming from, and would suggest that you mention it to Apple:

    They seldom reply, but it might be addressed.

  • Picture frame button disappear from the lock screen

    hi guys,
    after updating to iOS 5.01, I can no longer find the picture frame button in the lock screen. can I get it back somewhere by tweaking in the settings? thanks

    Ah, you mean the camera.  Your original post sounded like you were asking about the photo frame/display function.
    To get the camera button on the Lock screen, just double-click the Home button.

  • I have a iPhone 4 and lately it has been shutting down randomly when I still have battery left. It also doesn't turn back on, until I plug it in to the charger. But when I plug it in, the low battery sign shows up then comes to the lock screen with 68%.
