That's because you're still thinking about unlocking, then using your phone. What you're describing is the ease of the unlock step BEFORE using your phone. The big change for me with TouchID is that now, my first thought isn't unlocking the phone. I put my thumb on the home button to USE my phone, not to UNLOCK my phone so I can use it.
My guess is FaceID will be the same. You WILL be looking at the phone because you look at the phone to USE it. When you do, it will be unlocked fast enough that you don't think about unlocking (you see the screen transition, but your thoughts will be on using the phone not on the unlock that already happened).
- JustSomeNobody 9y agoWell, one use case I have is my phone sits on my desk arms reach away. I can lay my index finger on the touch id and check if I have a message. I don't have to lift my phone to use it. Not saying I can't adjust my behavior. We all have our own way of using our devices.
- threeseed 9y agoThis makes no sense. How can you use your phone without looking at it ? Because from what Apple has said if you can see the screen the camera will at most angles be able to authenticate you.
- fiblye 9y agoLay your phone on a table about 6 inches right of your shoulder. It's perfectly possible and easy to read and use your phone this way, but your face is completely out of the camera's field of view.
