Holly, in settings on the X there is a setting in accessibility to be able to just tap the screen. It will take you to your notifications and if I remember correctly it will give you the time or you can swipe to it. Screen is still locked however, and face ID is necessary to read any notifications. Please someone correct me if I am incorrect where this option is.
Speaking of that screen when you tap the locked screen. I found a way to give light to face ID on this screen as it has a difficult time with face ID in darkness. If I turn on the flashlight in the lower left corner it will give enough light to unlock the notification screen. When I hear it unlock I turn off the flashlight again and swipe from the bottom of the screen to go to the home screen.

Somebody who will spend all day on a couch with a resting head and supportive eyes to lift the spirits of a broken heart." So God made a dog.

One thing I was wondering about is the fact that the 10 has no home button. I like to take my phone to bed at night and keep it under my pillow. I enable the 'do not disturb' feature from the time I go to bed until morning, so I won't get any alerts or calls. When I wake up during the night, I can just find my phone under my pillow, put it under my ear and hit the home button to hear the time announced. This way I don't disturb my sleeping spouse. If I got a 10, what gesture would I have to make, or what button would I press to hear the time announced? Thanks in advance.
