I want this, and also the ability to secure different areas of my phone.
I want to be able to set touch or PINs for certain apps, so that I can have multi level security. Why is there so much emphasis on one master password/touch ID/face ID instead of having multiple security checks?
- jfaat 9y agoAll of my banking apps, among others (e.g. password manager), include options for both pin and touchID auth. Do we not already have what you’re asking for?
- kfriede 9y agoI think he's requesting it on the system level. For example, if iOS allowed you to force PIN+TID when opening a specific (not necessarily secure) app for the first time after an unlock. Intended for apps that don't necessarily have security built in already.
- mulletbum 9y agoThis is especially useful for when the app developer doesn't think there is a reason for them to develop such a system. For example, I don't want my son playing a zombie game, but I myself play it often. I could then lock him out of said game, but still give him my phone to use.
- irrational 9y agoThis isn't exactly what you are looking for, but have you tried Guided Access on iOS (or whatever the equivalent is on Android)?
- mulletbum 9y agoYes, that is the way I do it currently. It's a real pain though.
- et-al 9y agoWhich password manager are you using? 1Password doesn't support TouchID + PIN on iOS, but I wish they would.
- daveFNbuck 9y agoI'm using LastPass on Android, and I have it set to require both my fingerprint and my LastPass password.
- muninn_ 9y agoYou can do this on iPhone kinda. I have it so that I can reply to text messages from the lock screen, but to view or reply to emails I have to log in. Not perfect but that works at least.
