- After the update to iOS 15, the option “Show” is missing on many iPhones when swiping over a message on the lock screen.
- This made it possible to answer directly from the lock screen.
- But this is still possible if you keep the message pressed.
If you want to reply to WhatsApp messages from the lock screen of your iPhone, you may face a problem after updating to iOS 15. If you swipe left on the message as before, you will only see the “Options” and “Delete” buttons. The “Show” button that you could use to answer before has disappeared.
The problem affects not only WhatsApp, but also messages from messenger apps in general and is a cause for concern Reddit and in Apple-Forum for some discussion.
But the problem can usually be solved quickly. Hold the message (3D Touch) and you should be able to reply. If the problem persists, first check in the settings under “Touch ID & Code”> “Allow access when locked” whether “Reply with message” is activated.
It can also help to reset the iPhone to factory settings after the update.
We’ll also tell you how to get rid of the “Memory full” message after updating to iOS 15.
