If You Have A 5S Do You Prefer The Touch ID and Password Or Just One?

[Jaguarr40]

How do you use the new security features in the 5S? Do you utilize the Touch ID or just a Password or both?

Have them both, but prefer the Touch ID, IMO, it's an awesome feature and works very well.

Both are enabled but I prefer Touch ID. It's so much easier-I don't even have to look at my phone.

I agree with both of you but do have both of mine activated. Never can be too safe.

I also have both enabled but was thinking of going to a stronger pass code instead of the four digit.

I use the touchID all the time so a simple backup is redundant and sloppy

Touch ID (since it has grown on me) enabled for me. In order for Touch ID a passcode must be enabled, too. So, both.

And if Touch ID could be enabled only without a passcode, I wouldn't use Touch ID.

I prefer using the touch id. But pin is set up as a backup so whenever my daughter makes too many attempts to unlock my wife's iPhone then it would ask for the pin

Touch ID is brilliant, and I have a 6 character passcode set up also.

Love touch ID. Didn't think it would be a big deal at first but I love it now.

I use both. My success rate has been about 6 out 10 on Touch ID.
I'm working on trying to improve it.
Good Luck

I have both enabled. Touch ID is definitely a quick way to access my phone.

I have both enabled but use the touch mostly.

Usually use Touch ID works about 95% of the time and I rarely ever have to put in a code for too many fails.

I rarely put a passcode in as touch id works consistently in 7.1, and as a result I have a stronger passcode.

Touch ID for me!

I want Touch ID to replace all the password related apps in the iOS. But have them both is always practical.

Touch ID. Its faster than putting in the code too.

Touch ID...especially when purchasing music/apps.

Maybe integrate it with iCloud Keychain.
