Hello, one of the problems I have with my 6S+ is that whenever I want to take a photo, I have to press the home button, enter the six digit passcode and then launch the camera app. If the code is incorrect, I have to key in again. By then, object of interest already gone. Is there a way that I do it instantly on the 6S+, 15+ and 15 Pro?

The 15 Pro seems to have a new Action Button which we could assign it to open the Camera app. With the passcode on, does it bypass the need to enter the passcode and launch the Camera app instantly the Action Button is pressed?

You can also swipe to Control Center and access the camera there without the passcode being entered (or Face ID or Touch ID).

Yes, the action button can bring up the camera without entering a passcode or validating with Face ID.
