There should be an option to immediately stop registering touch input when the device is locked (alien.top)
 

One of by biggest pet peeves with the new tap to wake always on screen recognition of the last few gens is that even when you lock the device it can still recognize and react to touch input while it’s locking.

If I’m listening to music and click the power button to lock my screen when I’m on the Lock Screen I’ll usually immediately put my phone in my pocket as I tap the button. The issue with this is that when my fingers touch the screen when putting it away it will oftentimes change the song even though I’ve already “locked it”. You can try it yourself and get the same result by clicking the power button and then tapping a music control as the screen dims.

I know this is a very first world problem but it happens probably at least once or twice a day and it’s pretty annoying to suddenly have my music change or audiobook skip. Am I alone in this and just “using it wrong” ™ ?

To those of you who have the Phone app in your dock, do you actually use it often? in c/apple@hardware.watch

You don’t need to use the phone app to make phone calls lol

Yeah but is it actually used or is it just there for the once in a blue moon that it’s opened?

I’m not saying it isn’t used but is it actually a top 4 app?

The recent dock sharing post surprised me because of how many people had the Phone app in the dock.

I personally open it maybe once a month if I have to call a number I don’t have in my phone and if I call anyone I know it’s just through the Messages app since it’s all right there on the contact. Because of this I haven’t had the phone app on my dock for years.

Am I generally alone in this or were non Phone app users just not very present in that thread?
