Questions:
* Does one explicitly set up their FaceID with the option to skip, like how TouchID works currently? I see (when...enabled) verbiage, which is a good sign.
* "The probability that a random person in the population could look at your iPhone X and unlock it using Face ID is approximately 1 in 1,000,000 (versus 1 in 50,000 for Touch ID)"
If you have a face that causes most people you meet to say "oh, you look like X, Y, or Z", is this probability reduced? Other comments noted Twins. This isn't meant to be humorous or tongue-and-cheek, there could be a precedent that people of certain appearances are easily spoofed.
* "To avoid a user having to reenroll to Face ID when these neural network changes are made, iPhone X will be able to automatically run stored enrollment images through the updated neural network."
I guess a layperson would see the words "automatically" and relax, but this leaves more to be desired in explaining the "Secure Enclave" to me. The Name "Secure Enclave" almost sounded like remote storage until I read that the data never leaves the device.
Thanks for the downvotes for questions!

- rb808 9y agoWould be cool/weird if you could find out who they were and have a meetup.
- FilterSweep 9y agoI've met a few. Paths have moved on but it would have been cool to see if they could try unlocking my phone if this came out during my tenure in college.
- dmitriid 9y agoSecure Enclave isn't somehthing new to FaceID. It was developed for Touch ID. Some details here: https://www.apple.com/business/docs/iOS_Security_Guide.pdf https://www.apple.com/business/docs/iOS_Security_Guide.pdf
- madeofpalk 9y ago> I see (when...enabled) verbiage, which is a good sign. Of course. See "Face ID requires a facial match — or optionally the passcode — at every wake." and "If you're concerned about [matching with a twin], we recommend using a passcode to authenticate."
- xenadu02 9y agoLike Touch ID, you don't have to enable Face ID if you prefer not to use it.
