Upgraded from 5 to 6, absolutely loving Touch ID!

What I find annoying with the Touch ID/Passcode is that if you try and delete an email from the lockscreen, it then brings up the keypad for your passcode, and then goes back to the lockscreen...makes the whole process a lot more cumbersome. It just just have something that shakes the screen a little to remind you that it needs the Touch ID, would be a lot smoother experience.
Yes and it works way better out of the box compared to what 5s users had to deal with when TouchID first debuted.
I came from the 5 an Touch ID was a major reason for the upgrade. Not only is it convenient, but now we can reasonably use a non-simple passcode for added security. I'd never consider this before, but now, it is very rare to need a passcode, so I made it very complex.
I also made the jump from the iPhone 5 to the iPhone 6 and LOVE the TouchID Sensor. Just to unlock the phone is awesome, but the 1Password App is amazing to use with it as well. I still think they need an update to for the Safari Extension, because it still takes me to 1Password and I have to enter my physical password, which makes no sense to me, or do I have it set up wrong?
If anyone can help me with that, I would appreciate it! Thanks in advance!

What I learned yesterday is that when you're prompted to enter a passcode because you "swiped to unlock"ed or swiped a notification on the homescreen, you can still use the touch ID instead of entering your passcode.
I'm in the same boat. Coming from the 5, I was excited for Touch ID, and it hasn't disappointed. I never used pass codes, but this makes it even easier to unlock the phone, and it's more secure.
With the addition of Apple Pay, I'm even more excited to use it.

Yes, you have it setup wrong
Actually, it's not wrong. It just depends on the security that you'd like. In preferences, under security, I set my require password after 30 days. Then under the touch id section, make sure it's switched on, and I request fingerprint after 2 minutes. In theory, it should only make you enter your master password every month, and use touchID the remainder of the time. However, I think there's a bug since occasionally it makes me still enter my master password. Weird.Good luck.

Good luck.
Thank you so much for helping me getting this setup right. I think the reason you sometimes have to enter your password before 30 days, is if you restart your phone. Also, 1Password Safari Extension seems to have some bugs, but maybe I do not have that setup right? I am usually very good at this but after all, these are "New Features," so there is a learning curve.
Once again Thank You!
yeah. I'm also coming from a 5, and this is to me by far the most useful feature apple has ever added to the iPhone.

woah. thats completely the opposite of what i prefer... if a home button isn't clicky, it feels broken, and worn out to me. I love the clickyness of the 5 onward home buttons.
