Does anyone else love the way faceID handles saved passwords for websites?

[ajiuo]

Before it would just kind of autofill that info and I would still have to hit login... now anytime I go to a website faceID pops up for a second and then just logs me in... it’s a little bit easer... and more secure because it doesn’t autofill for anyone else.

There are a few times I miss TouchID... but this example is one of the reasons I love faceID

Yeah I think it is a great feature also. Impressed every time it does it.

I like it but really don't like the way it's implemented. So it might fail if I don't look at the screen - and there's no easy way to re-do Face ID.

I love it too! Very smooth process, and it's a nice extra layer of security compared to having everything autofill if phone is unlocked.

What doesn't make sense is that by opening the phone I've already established my credentials, why is it rechecking them yet again? Repeating the same security measure doesn't increase security. It's like having two sequential front doors, both opened with the same key. It's less convenient but no more secure.

Yes. It’s quite nice.

A lot of people will sometimes give there phone to a kid or somone else to use to play a game or look something up... so it’s nice to have.... plus if a person guesses or knows your passcode.... I’m sure you can disable it if you don’t like it.

I don't like it, before my info was just there loaded, now I have to wait for Face ID to authenticate it. Makes it slower for me.

It's one of the reasons I've posted that FaceID exceeds TouchID once in the phone and running day-to-day apps.

Yes, this is a great feature to me. Just because I unlock my phone for someone, intentionally or inadvertently, doesn't mean I want to give them access to my password app, bank accounts, dropbox, or any other sensitive info. iOS does it right. But maybe they should give people the option if they don't want/need that level of security?

Actually yes i love it. Part of the reason i was enjoying my samsung. It auto filled everyting. Even the netflix account. Now coming back to iOS i like it so far and im sure it will get better. Like WilliamG said if it fails it will suck but I'm happy its there

Yes, love it. One of my favorite features of FaceID.
