For years, Apple taught us to unlock iOS devices by swiping on the lock screen from left to right. The company even patented this technology, and gave Samsung and other Android device makers plenty of headaches over this method of unlocking a smartphone. But in iOS 10, Apple is killing the gesture, as it has other plans in mind for the lock screen and the phone unlocking mechanism. Slide-to-unlock is dead, long live Press-home-to-open!

多年來，蘋果公司教會我們：在iOS系統的設備上，向右滑動可以打開鎖定的屏幕。蘋果公司甚至還申請了滑動解鎖的專利，這使三星和其他安卓設備的制造商絞盡腦汁思考智能手機的解鎖方法。但是在iOS10中，蘋果公司想出了新的鎖屏和解鎖方法，所以取消了滑動解鎖。滑動解鎖已經消失，換成了按下主屏幕按鈕解鎖!

That’s the new gesture you have to learn: pressing the home button to open the iPhone or iPad. But as our Chris Mills discovered while testing iOS 10, you will encounter a rather silly behavior, at least in the first beta.

你必須學會新的解鎖方法：按下主屏幕按鈕打開iPhone或iPad。但是在對iOS10系統進行測試時，Chris Mills發現至少在首個Beta版本中，用戶會因為不適應而做出愚蠢的行為。

Ever since Touch ID was introduced, it was simple: place your finger on the home button, without pressing, and your phone will open. Simple, right? Well, not simple enough for Apple! In the new beta, if you’ve touched the lock screen at all, using Touch ID will unlock the phone, but not open it. Instead, you first have to scan your finger, and then hit the home button to unlock your phone. It’s the opposite of what Apple has been training us to do for years, and it feels glitchy and bad.

自從Touch ID設備上市以來，解鎖變得非常簡單：只要把手指放在主屏幕鍵上，無需按壓即可解鎖。真的很簡單，對吧?但是，對蘋果公司來說，這還不夠簡單!在新的Beta版本中，如果你觸摸鎖定的屏幕，使用Touch ID可以解鎖，但無法打開手機。新系統中，首先掃描指紋，然后再按下主屏幕鍵才能解鎖。這一方法操作不方便，違背了蘋果公司多年來教會我們的方法。

So why is Apple killing the iconic iPhone slide-to-unlock? Because keeping it would only offer users a confusing experience in iOS 10.

那么，蘋果公司為什么要取消iPhone的標志性功能滑動解鎖呢?這是因為在iOS10系統中，保留滑動解鎖功能會使用戶感到困惑。

See those dots below the "Press home to unlock" text in the image above? They suggest that additional actions are available on the lock screen by swiping left or right. Swiping from left to right brings up the widgets screen, but the gesture can’t do two things at once. That’s why you won’t be able to swipe-to-unlock. Swiping from right to left will bring up the camera app. In iOS 9, you need to swipe from the bottom right corner upwards to activate the camera app.

我們可以看到“按下主屏幕鍵解鎖”文字下面的幾個點。這些點表明，在鎖定的屏幕上面，向右或向左滑動可以打開不同的功能。從左向右滑動會出現小工具，從右向左滑動則會打開相機。在iOS9中，要想打開相機，用戶需要從屏幕右下角的位置向上滑動。

After so many years of swiping-to-unlock the iPhone, this change will probably annoy plenty of long-time users, at least at first. If, however, you’ve been relying on Touch ID to unlock iOS devices, the transition will be easier.

這么多年以來，iPhone一直使用的是滑動解鎖。剛開始的階段，“按下主屏幕鍵解鎖”這一改變將會引起長期用戶的不滿。但是，如果你已經設置了指紋解鎖，就比較容易適應這一改變。
