Do you have any tips on how to go back to the swipe (or just avoid needing to click on the home button) with an ipod touch? I get as far as the Home Button option and after then my screen only shows me options to speed up the click nothing about using the swipe or anything.

I've an iPod Touch 6th Generation myself and there's no option to restore the Swipe to Unlock feature within iOS 10 itself.

At the moment Apple are apparently signing the firmware for iOS 9.3.5 still so you'd have to revert to the previous operating system version to get back Swipe to Unlock *.
