Hello guys!
Does anyone know of a way to unlock the iPhone screen using direct touch typing? Here I give 2 taps on each number, and just touching the key does not work

I think you could turn off the passcode requirement.
Somewhere in settings.

I just tried it on my iPad which is still on ios 10. I found that tapping the number once to select it and then double tapping to enter it. There was a slight delay between the double tap and the number being entered.

Are you talking about passcode entry? Touch typing works for me, i.e., move your finger around the screen until you hear the number spoken that you want to enter, then lift your finger off the screen. Of course, you must have Touch Typing enabled. Once you've successfully entered the required number of digits, the phone should automatically unlock, no need to touch a submit or done button.

If you have a device that supports 3D Touch and 3D Touch is enabled, you need to make sure you don't press too hard when entering your passcode. This caused me to incorrectly enter my code the first few times I used a phone that supported 3D Touch.
