IOS 7 lock screen bug and how to fix it

control-center

In the course of the successive iOS that we have been able to see over the years, several 'bugs' or failures in the security of our devices have been observed when they were on the lock screen. Because with iOS 7 It seems that it will not be different, even when we know that Apple has made a special effort to improve the security conditions thereof.

This security failure would allow outsiders to access our device through the new control center and navigate through our photos, email, social mediaEtc. ...

That we can access the control center from the locked screen is undoubtedly a great attraction and a great improvement when it comes to the usability of the device, but apparently it is too much to ask for the moment. Therefore, as long as this bug poses a real threat to our Privacy We recommend overriding the option to access the control center from the lock screen. How can we disable it? Very easy. We will only have to go to Settings> Control Center> Locked screen access. Once there we deactivate it and that's it.

I venture to say - and I think I'm not wrong - that iOS 7 is the operating system most criticized throughout the history of iOS operating systems. It has caused a lot of controversy, starting with the icons, but now that it has been launched people are beginning to complain that the battery lasts less and that there are bugs.

This is completely normal, it is version 7.0.0, the same thing happened in the same version of iOS 6, although people seem to have already forgotten it. It is a great operating system to which they fit many improvements ahead, but still big. The only thing I recommend to those of you who have been using iOS 7 for a few days and think that you will never get used to it is patience, everything will come.

    In mine, nothing can be accessed from the lock screen, that is, from the control center on the lock screen if I enter the calculator, or the timer and press "home", I only return to the lock screen, and If I enter the camera, the same thing happens, and in the preview box of the reel that has the camera in the lower left corner, it only says to unlock the iPhone if I want to see the photos

    A question that I still have is not relevant, I hope you can answer me, you can do the tethered jailbreak to ios 7 on an iphone 4 with redsnow as it could be done before in other versions or not, if you cannot do it, you can explain why

      There is no jailbreak for iOS 7, neither tethered nor untethered. You can't because no one has created it yet.

        Ok, thanks I thought that if it could be done with redsnow in ios 6 and 5 every time a software update came out or something the jailbreak tether was available within a few minutes

    I have the iPhone 5s with the update of 7.0.1 and this is not possible…. data cannot be accessed through the control center when it is locked.

    I have the iPhone locked by code and I do not have this problem…. If I access the camera on the reel, no photo appears, and unless I enter the unlock code, it does not allow me to access any app that I have in the notifications.

    1.    Talion said

      The bug to access the camera does not consist of that, it is a sequence of steps that allows you to open multitasking with the screen locked, and using that (and the camera application) if they can see your photos. The list of steps is in another post.

        I confirm the bug in iPhone 5 iOS. With this sequence I access my data without having to enter the lock code.

    Well, for me, the bug is when you hit PLAY from the control center and the music doesn't play, but I can't pause it or change the song either.
    By having the code lock there is no danger that they see my photos or anything similar ...

    There is no such bug in iOS7, you can put the steps to reproduce that bug or vulnerability. I have an iPhone5 with iOS7 and nothing I can do what you mention from the lock screen. I do not want to sound sensational but your post is and does not provide evidence for the serious accusation towards security in an operating system, I am not saying that it is a lie, I am just saying that if you can put the steps to reproduce this problem we would all understand that our security is Committed and that we must pay attention to your post for our safety. Greetings.

    It seems from what I read that it happens to some and not to others?…. I dont know…
    In any case, it seems to me that the big problem is that you can activate THE AIRPLANE MODE !!! Now if you lose your mobile, a smart guy arrives and activates it and you can no longer know where it is ... I have spent so much time creating «find my iphone» with all its improvements and anyone can avoid it ...
    I get repetitive but this would not have allowed Steve ... 😥

      And now that I fall, I do not think it is very difficult to put a code to turn it off as well ...
