iOS 8: Reply to messages from the lock screen
- Receive a message on the lock screen, put your finger on the text, and swipe left.
- Depending on the app, you can now choose different options. You can reply to SMS messages (see picture), mails can also "Mark as read". Unfortunately, you can only delete WhatsApp messages from the notifications.
- For example, if you tap the "Reply" button, you can directly enter your message and send it via "Send".
- You therefore reply to a message without opening the app and without unlocking the device.
