Quick Reply on lock screen iOS 10

I

iMore Question

Anytime I try to quick reply from the lockscreen my keypad comes up and has me unlock my phone first. My friend also running iOS 10 doesn't have to unlock his phone first to reply. We both have passcode locks on our phones. I checked the settings and I have "Reply with Message" enabled under the Touch ID Passcode section. Any help would be appreciated.

What version iOS 10 do each of you have? There was a bug that was causing issues in the first version. I'm not sure if this is something that was fixed as of yet.

If you have "show preview" turned off for messages then it will always requiere you to use your fingerprint or passcode before you can use the quick reply. If you are ok with turning show preview on then you should be able to reply with quick reply without using your fingerprint or passcode.
