I have it activated. Quick question about it. Is it possible to double tap the notification and go straight into the app instead of always having to "swipe screen to open"
Depends.
If you have a lock on your phone it will ask you for this lock. I.e. fingerprint, iris, pin, pattern.
But if you set up iris all you have to do is double tap and look at the phone and it will open.

I am running a stock un-rooted note 5 . my issue is that I have to Swipe up on the lock Screen and use the fingerprint to unlock but I only want to use the fingerprint . Any idea HOW to do this?
Please search next time. You have smart lock activated. If you have a lock icon on you lock screen, your phone is not secure. Just swipe anywhere but from that icon and your phone unlocks. If you swipe from the lock icon, then you are securing it for the next time you turn the screen on. To change the smart lock setting, go to settings > lock screen and security>secure lock settings> smart lock.
The thing is I already searched and could not find anything on this. Also smart lock is not turned on. If I wipe it's either use finger print or pin if it can't read my print after a few tries. My phone will not unlock from just a swipe it has to be a pin or password. I don't want to swipe at all but just use a finger print.
I figured it out the thread can be closed.

I'm having this same issue. What was the solution?
So I set up my S7 with Fingerprint, but sometimes it doesn't even ask for my fingerprint and i can just unlock the phone by swiping it.
And when I press on a notification it will unlock the phone by it self without asking for fingerprint
Solutions ?
Using third party lockscreen?
Check Settings, Lock screen and security, Secure lock settings, Smart Lock.
Hello,
I want to use the patern lock method. The problem is that when I want to unlock the phone I must swipe the screen first and then to use the patern.(I select the only the patern method). I have searched the web(a lot) and still I can't get an answer.... On my previous phone(Note4 with Android 6.1) this behavior was not present. Is there a "magic " setting that can end my suffering?
Thank you in advance!
What happens when you also include fingerprint as a option?... meaning you have both pin and fingerprint as options.
You also have to swipe to use the iris scanner too...annoying for sure.

There's an option to have it scan for you iris as soon as you hit the unlock button.
The swipe is present if I chose pattern+face or pattern+iris...I just can get ride of it...I must swipe first and then biometrics or pattern...
No swipe needed, go to settings>display>navigation bar then turn on Unlock with home button, no need to swipe now just push the home button.
looking to slove this as well on galaxy s7 active...
we don't have the nav bar option...
On my gs8+ if I tap or double tap on a lock screen notification it does nothing. if I swipe the notification either direction it simply dismisses it. I know I can highlight the notification and then swipe up to get to the app but that is a two step process. Am I missing a better way?
I have mine PIN protected and I need to highlight then swipe up to enter the pin or unlock with the fingerprint reader..

No pin or any other protection on mine. Still have to highlight and swipe up. I dislike the two step process and hoping there is a setting I've missed.
Hi,
is there any option to bypass lock screen after double tap to wake up?
I have safety agent so when I double tap I see information that device is unlocked and I must swipe to see home screen. I don't want to swipe and see home screen immediately.

If you disable lock screen then it will work as you wish.
I don't want disable lock screen. It's unlocking by safety agent from Google and I don't want to additionally make slide to unlock after screen wake up
