Is Touch ID working well for you?

[DroidArmy]

Mine doesn't have any problems, the accuracy is incredible. I must say, the latest updates have been improving its accuracy and performance. It hasn't been an issue

Added my index and middle finger today. Still working flawless...luving this touch ID, makes things so much easier and faster

Way to easy lol I hate putting pass codes in anything now lol

My Touch ID works flawlessly unless of course my hands are sweaty but that's how it's supposed to be. Love my gold 5s!

 

[Jrome.brooks]

It's good for me

I had a bad day with TouchID yesterday. Failure rate was about 80%. I have no clue what was up, but today it's working perfectly again. Go figure.

Mine was erratic! Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. I got it replaced yesterday and it's night and day difference!

Haven't had any issues with mines.

Works great for me. The app store asks to enter password to reestablish more than i would like. But thats not really an issue.
I find if you firmly press the home button with your associated finger it will unlock the iPhone every time.

Now that temperature and humidity have stabilized it works consistently. I will be able to test the environmental effect hypothesis when I travel to other climates this winter

Only time it doesnt work for me is when my finger is sweaty after running, this is very consistent. Also it doesnt work at all when its inside my armband which has a clear plastic cover. Otherwise it works great 100% of the time 95% of the time!

Mine only works if I press my thumb hard and only if I do so horizontally (thumb parallel to the bottom of the phone). If I do that, I get about a 95% success rate. Anything else gets me a 10-20% success rate. It makes it really hard to unlock in the car! I have found that it gets worse over time, so I just delete all my fingerprints about once a month and enter them again. A PITA, but it works better when I do this.

My Touch ID don't work anymore... And unfortunately, my iPhone is not guaranteed

I would delete the prints you have stored and run the set up again.

Mine works I'd say 95% of the time, with the occasional time where I'll hold my finger there and it simply doesn't recognize it until I press the home button again.

After a little over a month of having my Gold iPhone 5s, the Touch ID is still working GREAT. Just added my left thumb print yesterday ...SMILE:biggrin:

All I can say is that I am glad that I didn't buy the 5s just because of the Touch-ID feature! If I had I would have been bitterly disappointed.

I can set it up OK to three of my fingers, I test it and it works fine pretty much every time, I wouldn't expect it to be 100%. The next day, it has become extremely unreliable and frustrating. Nearly every time it fails, no matter which of the selected fingers I use. I have deleted the saved finger prints and set them up time and time again. Still the same.

It could be because the weather is cold here and my skin is dry, but as they were the same when I trained the sensor, I would still expect it to work better than it does.

The only times I notice it not work is when I get out of the shower and I have a tendency to take long hot showers so my finger print will be distorted. Other than that I have not had an issue.

Not sure if it's me or not but I found it works better if I use the ball of my thumb. I work for a living lol so my hands are a bit rough. The tips of my fingers are not that great so I have had better results doing it this way.

 

[shanghaichica]

Well I've only had my phone for 4 days but so far it's working flawlessly.

It works okay through my LifeProof case.
