Can't help wondering if FaceID's more of a PITA than a help. Do I always have to stop and stare at my phone? What if I'm walking?

- Sevauk 9y agoDon't you need to look at your phone to use it anyway ?
- JustSomeNobody 9y agoNo. Often my phone is on a desk. So with Touch ID I can walk back into the room, lay my finger on the phone and it wakes and shows me if I have any messages. I don’t have to pick it up, move it, stare directly at it or anything. I get that most people don’t work this way but for me it’s great.
- macintux 9y agoDisclaimer: mine hasn't arrived yet, but you should be able to walk into the room, tap the phone, and it will unlock but leave you at the lock screen to see your notifications. You don't have to be facing it directly, you don't have to lift to wake it.
- macintux 9y agoWelp, apparently you do have to lean over it, per reports. A shame.
- dilap 9y agomight depend on a your personal usecase. touchid just never worked reliably for me, so i'm excited to try faceid...
- randyrand 9y agoIt'll be awesome for people with sweaty hands or in warm or cold climates. Gotta take the bad with the good. Im optimistic.
