Installing from App Store using Face ID

[Stephanus Surjaputra]

Ok. What am I missing? I turned on Face ID for iTunes and App Store.

However, when I try to get an app from the app store, I get a bouncing prompt on the right side that says Double click to install. There's nothing to double-click. I see (I guess) a box that's off screen and I can't slide it in.

If I turn off Face ID for iTunes and App Store, I have no problems.

What's going on?

Thanks.

Oh you just click the power button twice and that will work.

On the right side of the iPhone X, below the antenna band, you’ll see an elongated button. Press that button twice as depicted when the App Store prompts you. In fact, the prompt by the App Store is right next to the button you’re suppose to double press.

lol John Gruber wrote about this a couple of days ago. I was a bit confused at first as well.

Double click the side button right where the prompt is located. Face ID is to authenticate and the side button is to confirm.
