iPhone 8 – Face ID has the Great Function of Touch ID

iPhone 8 will have for Face ID a very great function and appreciated by those who already use Touch ID in iPhone and iPad that have integrated it.

iPhone 8 will have Face ID, a facial recognition system, the Apple company will integrate it to offer users the opportunity to use their face for biometric security. This Face ID system has been confirmed by iOS 11 for HomePod, thanks to the developers who analyzed it intensively, and today we are talking about a very interesting new function that is also offered through Touch ID.

The iPhone 8 will have the ability to scan multiple faces through Face ID to unlock iPhones, as is the case with Touch ID. You already know that Touch ID allows scanning up to 5 fingerprints of our fingers and not only that, but the system can be tricked to remember all the fingers and not just ours, but other people's as well, and Face ID in iPhone 8 will have something similar.

The iPhone 8 will most likely not allow the use of the Touch ID trick to scan more than the maximum possible number offered by the Apple company, considering its complexity. However, Face ID is going to offer the possibility of scanning at least 5 faces to unlock the iPhone 8, otherwise the system would not have the same expected utility as in the case of Touch ID and would be very limiting.

iPhone 8 – Face ID has the great function of Touch ID

iPhone 8, although we told you this a few weeks ago, will allow you to use Face ID to authorize mobile payments through Apple Pay. If Apple is serious and will offer Face ID instead of Touch ID in the iPhone 8, then it is mandatory to allow the authorization of mobile payments, and this is because Apple Pay will not be eliminated, and in the absence of Touch ID there must be a replacement that make the authorizations.

The iPhone 8 will have a Face ID that will be able to be used with third-party applications as well, and we already knew this a few weeks ago because it is a logical and very useful function. It was hard to believe that Face ID could be implemented in iPhone 8 without being able to be used with third-party applications, as it happens with Touch ID, so you can rest assured because there is confirmation for this in iOS 11 for HomePod.

The iPhone 8 is in production now, and the other day we blew you away what Apple employees say about Face ID, claiming that it is even safer and faster than Touch ID. If this is true, we will be fully convinced in September, when the iPhone 8 will be launched together with Face ID, and then we will see if all these months of rumors and waiting were worth it in the end.

  1. Hello! Do you have any idea if that "swipe" (like when you pull the edge from the left to the inside) that is current on iOS 10.x on devices 6s, 7, 7plus will still be present in iOS 11? I think you understand what I'm talking about. Sorry I didn't ask the question in the right place. 😀

  2. Serb, stop the nonsense. Apple messed up with the fingerprint sensor and now wants to make up for the failure with I don't know what wonderful functions of faceID, let's be serious, it's marketing and that's all!

  3. How to chat with touchid? It was the best
    That's how you said even before toucid appeared that it's just marketing
    Only narrow-minded people do not know its possibilities

  4. Yes, I know what he was referring to, but Apple is clear that it wants to give up touchid. It offers another 1-2 years through 7s and SE, after which it will eliminate it

  5. Serbian, the touchID is useful not only for unlocking but also for payments, authentication on various sites, etc. FaceID will be more difficult to use in low light conditions, you will surely convince yourself of this. The implementation of a fingerprint sensor in the screen was a fff useful thing but so....chix.

  6. Everything works fine even in the dark like Microsoft Hello or other Samsung devices. To think that apple didn't think of such a thing.. if you haven't read make id it can be used for payments, you can make multiple accounts like touchid without looking directly at the phone, plus when you use it it will scan from time to time like it's you and not someone else.
    FaceId is the future and much more secure
    Just like toucid, probably with time they will improve the system in verse 2
    So no quix

  7. If Apple removes TouchID from the iPhone 8, it will never return to it
    With touchid, anyone could access your notifications via 3d touch
