Why not swipe right to unlock, and left for notification widgets, and up for the camera? Really dumb move. Not 'remove headphone jack' level dumb, but still.
EDIT: Jesus christ, what have they done to Music? It's somehow worse.

adding even more and more swiping actions is kinda confusing.
(my dad HATES any kind of swiping shit)
There's already a "bottom up" swipe for control center.
the whole "swipe up from the left corner for handoff" "swipe up from the right corner for camera" and "swipe up from the middle for control center" was already very unintuitive.
I like the new setup, there's4 swipes, one of which people are going to use often (camera).

10 on iPhone 5 is draining battery much faster than 9 even in standby over night. I already removed all the widgets, restarted and checked background apps, everything's the same and the battery itself isn't the issue, relatively new and was fine yesterday before the update. I don't think it's still doing stuff in the background, there's almost nothing on my phone to index but who knows.

I also want swipe back, will probably do the downgrade.

It's draining my 6s as well. More than 30% of my battery was drained overnight. That's with background app refresh disabled and some other shit disabled. After around 1 minute of looking at the home screen, not doing anything, 1% of the battery is used. I dislike most of the changes in this update, and this battery drain is ridiculous.
Enable "Rest to Open" to stop the button pressing requirement.
That said, it took me about 2-3 days to get used to not swiping.
The first few days after iOS 10 is installed you should expect excessive battery drain while the OS is re-indexing your phone's data, contacts, photos, messages etc. for the new learning algorithms.
Do you have the opentable app installed? You might need it, and then you can make reservations within the maps app.

My iPhone 6 seems to be running hot since the update, anyone had this problem? And what should I do about it?

Mine was hot just after the update but cooled down quickly and has been fine since (touch wood).

Camera was fine when you had the icon in the bottom right corner and you swiped up from that.
They could have an option where you can either have the new notification home screen with home button unlock, or run 'classic' mode where it was like ios 9. But Apple doesn't like options.

I doubt that that's it, I have maybe 30 contacts, about as many photos and songs and no messages on it, there really isn't anything to index/learn. Others are seeing the same too.
is it plugged in and locked? maybe it's scanning your photo library for faces and memories.
btw, just found out that WatchOS 3.0 doesn't support SCRIBBLE for anything but english and chinese.
This is even more irritating than Siri being available in Germany, but not Austria.
We. Use. The. Same. Letters. As. The. English-Speakers.
(and scribble is single letter input, right? ...)
yeah, two entirely different modes. That'd be a great idea.
And no, Camera wasn't fine. It was super fiddly and difficult to do for people with small hands and big phones. The new way is way faster.
You'd be wrong. Literally everyone I know listens to music at home through their phones or tablets and wireless speakers. It's nearly always a conversation item at parties which Bluetooth speaker we all have.
I haven't used my Mac to play music in years.

I actually didn't think that camera icon was that convenient - especially not on the larger Plus phones. It was usually 50-50 if I'd get it on the first try. I much prefer being able to swipe anywhere for the camera after just raising the phone to wake. I know people generally don't like change but IMO the lock screen changes are way better than before and notifications and widgets are much easier to interact with without accidentally just unlocking the phone to the springboard.

Swiping down for notifications, left for camera, right to unlock? It feels like they're just messing with established gestures for the hell of it.
And now I have to swipe right to get to the music controls after i've swiped up to get to the shortcut panel, because night mode apparently needs a big button now.

Woooooow. THANK YOU! This is so much better and quicker, awesome setting.
EVERYONE READ THE ABOVE AND DO IT!
I don't have a touch ID phone, how does one get to home screen without this option on?
Wait maybe this is spotty
So last night I thought if you just touched a notification in the Notification Center it wouldn't open, forcing you to force touch.
But now some app respond to a light touch and others don't. I just want to tap the notification and be taken to the app :/

You can also do a short swipe down on banner notifications to interact with them. I don't get too many banner notifications but you could always change the force needed to invoke 3D Touch and that might fix it for you.
I don't mind using force touch but I want the option to just tap a notification in the Notification Center to open that app

Hmm, well that is working for me in Notification Center.
It's hit or miss right now for me (6s+)
This is my first iPhone, so I'll take your word for it, but I just watched my phone's battery go from 85% to 79% in 2 minutes while updating 4 apps. lol
Any way to circumvent "press home to open"?
I rest my finger on my thumb print habitually and litterally stare at the lock screen for a full 3 seconds before pressing the home button.
Is there anyway to look back at the iMessage thread when you have texted a long message before sending? You used to be able to pull from the top of your message to see the thread.
I used to just pull down on iMessage notifications that I acknowledged but didn't need to respond to so that it would get rid of the badge.
Now it seems like I have to pull the whole thing down in order to do that.

Try general > accessibility > Home Button, enable rest finger to open.
Anyone have carrier issues since iOS 10? I'm on T-Mobile and am getting no service in areas I typically would. Not seeing a carrier update either, and not saying it's an issue iOS 10 brought on, but didn't experience this before updating. Having to restart the phone to get service isn't optimal at all. :/
All good here. T-Mobile. There was a carrier update. Try a network reset.
Is the latest version 25.1?
That's what I have.
Bless you

Why is there still a gamecenter option in the settings if gamecenter is gone?
You can authenticate with Touch ID though without going to your home screen. That's why the new setting works. Lift your phone, see a notification or go to your widgets, it says "you need to unlock first", just touch your thumb, and now it lets you do whatever without taking you out of the notification or widget. So I use Find Friends widget to check where my daughter is. But when I just swipe on the lock screen it hides the info (because I don't want someone to pick up my phone and see where she is) and says "unlock to view". Now if I just touch my thumb to the home button it'll show me her location on the lock screen.
But you have raise to wake now to do the same thing.

Wow. Thanks for this
So much better than press to unlock every single time even with finger print.
The new music app is terrible.
Removing the backgrounds themed around the album artwork was such a nice little touch.
Now it is white for every damn album.

I would say habit.
So since you quoted me, I noticed since the update that I don't see the quote in green. But I'm starting to doubt my sanity. Was it ever in green on mobile?
It was. I didn't put 2 and 2 together but I'd noticed that myself

now i dont remember lol
It was. I recently noticed the change, too, and don't really care for it.
Thanks! I'm on a 6S+ and was wondering why this wasn't working for me with 3D Touch or long press and this solved it.

I like that the clicking sound is different between typing and backspacing.
