It was too easy not to.I feel bad that you went through all the comments to pick your favorites and make a lame response.
Yes, your response had intelligence written all over it.It was too easy not to.
You see, you're new here, which is cool. Welcome on board. Before the iPhone brought over the masses, these forums used to be filled with intelligent and well thought out posts. Try it sometime.
Calm down. It devolved without me. That's not a bad thing, it's just annoying that it happened at all. Like I said, welcome. I look forward to more of your hilarious posts.Yes, your response had intelligence written all over it.
Now how about you try not telling people what to write on your poor beloved forum, thats evolved without you?
Yes you can with touchscreen gloves. Just tried it on my 6s. Naturally TouchID doesn't work, but you can still type in your passcode and operate the phone after unlocking without ever taking your gloves off. That's a feature in a country where it's a really good idea to wear gloves outside for at least one third of a year. Seems like my likelyhood of getting the iPhone 7 became even lower than before.
I was talking about regular gloves, that's what the original test was based on. There are mixed reports about touchscreen gloves activating the home button (including them not working for Mac Rumors), which is similar to my experience with "touchscreen" gloves interacting well with the touchscreen itself. I suspect good gloves will work, and poor ones won't, as the conductivity requirements may be higher. It's winter much more than a third of the year here and touch screen gloves only work as liners, so either way, you're taking gloves off to use the phone.
We tested with a pair of gloves that are designed for touch screens and while we could unlock the iPhone 6s Plus with the gloves and use the touch screen, that wasn't possible with the iPhone 7 Plus -- the Home button wouldn't activate.
Not sure how this is really an issue. All you could do before, assuming you have touch ID enabled, is check the lock screen by pressing the button with gloves on.
Just use hey siri. It doesn't require you to press a button.I can do a long press and tell Siri to do whatever I need to. Very useful when it's -20C outside. Mostly it's about skipping an annoying track or something simple like that I wouldn't want to freeze my fingers over. So yes, it's a down side.

It works if you use Apple MusicThat's an option only with supported apps. Sadly, the Siri API didn't help with this as media apps are not allowed for API access.
