Aren't both of these just symptoms of unfamiliarity with the tech?
I resisted phone payments for a while, until one day I forgot my wallet and quickly added a few cards to my phone. Now I'm severely tempted to use it more often—my phone has a wallet button on the lock screen that jumps me straight there ready to pay with my default card. I've definitely experienced some friction the two times I've used it, but it seems pretty clear that that friction is temporary while I'm still becoming familiar with it.
- hot_gril 3y agoThe difference is the tap to pay location is usually not obvious, and FaceID will fail sometimes.

- hot_gril 3y agoI'd still have one too, but certain circumstances forced me to get something else. The home button iPhones are better.
