I don't have the app (or car) so I can't verify for myself, but now it's hard to reconcile your statement with the twitter thread analysis I referenced above.

I don't have the app (or car) so I can't verify for myself, but now it's hard to reconcile your statement with the twitter thread analysis I referenced above.
EDIT: Maybe it's a discrepancy about what a "confirmation" is? If the author of the twitter thread is correct, the "confirmation" is just a large button on the screen that doesn't require password re-entry, which is not much of a confirmation. He proposes that it's easy to accidentally spend the money if you go to the "upgrades" screen, then put the phone in your pocket without locking it.
- xedeon 7y agoI have the app and now exactly how it works. That's why I replied. I can even do a screen recording and show you, if you want.
- erk__ 7y agoYou should really do that and post the video as a reply to the tweet, because it seems like others have had another experiance when doing it.
- xedeon 7y agoWhen you say "others" can you cite where you are finding these reports from? Making a conscious purchase and then regretting it (after getting yelled at by your wife) does not equal to a "fat finger incident".
- erk__ 7y agoThe very twitter thread that you are replying about.
- xedeon 7y agoThat's one person. "Others" is plural. As requested: https://imgur.com/a/1IYTbrc https://imgur.com/a/1IYTbrc Notice how the payment transaction actually happens in Apple Pay. So that means that you need FaceID to complete it. Impossible to do if the phone is in your pocket!
- stanferder 7y agoThanks for providing that. I believe the route to the accidental purchase the twitter thread refers to is through the "Pay with credit card" button though, which for some reason isn't present in your configuration. https://twitter.com/tedstein/status/1219406791941017607 https://twitter.com/tedstein/status/1219406791941017607 See bottom, under the "Apple Pay" button.
