This is definitely not an edge case. How many kids do you see at the grocery store with their noses in an iPhone will their parent(s) shop?
That said, it would be nice to have the option of telling the app to cache your credentials.
- untog 14y agoEdge case was perhaps the wrong term. It certainly is not a majority case. As I said- make it an option, everyone is happy.
