Marshmallow update: home button and kids mode not working

When I hit home a "sense home" message comes up asking use once or always. I selected always and it works 80% of the time. When I open kids mode app, the same message comes up and asks whether to use house sense or kids mode. I select kids mode and the phone remains stuck on kids mode. Home button doesn't work.

Everything worked fine until the update. Please fix it.....

Software updates are intended to provide customers a better wireless experience, not worse. I would love to assist you with the “Kid Mode” feature on your HTC One M9 device.

First, I want to see how you’re attempting to get the device into Kid Mode. When pressing the “Power” button, do you press and hold the “Power” button until you’re presented with the option to change to Kid Mode?

I attempted to access kids mode through the app. I opened my app menu and selected the kids mode app. When I select the app, a question comes up asking to use "sense home" once or always and the option to select kids mode under neath that. If I select sense home and the just once option, it will send me to the home page. If I select kids mode and either just once or always option the phone goes into kids mode with no option to exit out. I hit the home button and the kids mode app opens up. The only way out is by powering down the phone and restarting.

Clear as mud? Is there any way to submit a picture? So you can see what I mean?

See attached screen shot when I select the kids mode app....

Thanks for clarifying. Per the device User Guide (page 289) http://vz.to/1S4MW8P you can close “Kid Mode” on the Zoodles main screen by tapping the “X” and then confirming your action by entering the required information. Let me know how that works out for you.

Yes that is correct. However, when I exit, it sends me to the home page.

Then when I select the home button it asks me whether to use sense home or

kids mode.

The message should not be coming up. When I select home , the phone

should not ask if I want to go to kids mode.

This should be fixed.
