I sometimes get this, but when it does work, there's other issues:
- if my reply is longer than one line, it pushes the text down along with the send button, but doesn't expand the notification, so I can't actually see the send button anymore
- the above doesn't really matter, because the phone locks/goes back to sleep before I've actually had chance to press the send button :D

same thing happens to me.

This happened to me all the time. Why though ? Isn't there a way to fix this? I get so upset when it goes back to sleep before I could finish replying.
 
Anyone else having issues with quick reply from the lock screen where the input box and send button do not show up making it impossible to reply? Keyboard, predictive words and the users message show but not the input box. Happens about 3 out of 10 times.

Me too on a 6s plus. Hopefully they fix in the next beta release.

I thought I had the same issue, but before I chalked it up as a bug I wanted to try something first. I only tried this a couple times, but it worked every single try. Quick reply and the send button pops up when you use Touch ID to unlock but never press the home button - meaning the lock button in the center, on top is gone. When the lock is present, it never allowed me to send a message, it just let me view it. It's the same when swiping a notification to open it, the app never opened unless I already used Touch ID to unlock the phone. I hope hat made sense...

Next time have someone text you, use Touch ID but don't hit the home button to unlock the phone (the lock is not present) - you should be able to reply. Then try it again, and don't even use Touch ID (the lock should be present still), you shouldn't be able to send anything...

If you have 6s/6s+/7 and your 3D Touch is on you need to firm press it, if you'd rather just swipe to reply you can disable your 3D Touch in the accessibility settings

I can still reply without passcode or Touch ID from lock screen.

I did a reset all settings and content.
