How often do you use Touch ID

[afsnyder]

Never.

The company bought the phone, their policies call for long secure passwords for all computers & devices. It's been like that for the fifteen years I've been there.

Our BYOD policy finally allows me to use an iPhone, I'm not going to complain because the Touch ID system is not acceptable to the powers that be. Especially since we're very well compensated for our work.

No reason to stir up trouble. A very experienced, large scale, secure design company, I'll continue to trust them.

Seems like they need to loosen up a bit about Touch ID. You can have your long ass password and use Touch ID to access it for yourself only. But it's great that you're "very well compensated" for your work.

Probably the most one sided polls I've seen on MR. I have to agree. I use mine to unlock my phone maybe 50+ times a day.

I'm enjoying my iPhone 6 , a lot. No complaints here.

The acerbic response above indicates you may be suffering in a negative environment if you're working. Look around there's many good companies to choose from if one has the education and experience.

I'm very happy I have a great iP6 and a good employer, don't hate those of us that aren't trashing Apple. It's a terrific company.

Also love using it for apps that support it, like 1Password.

I hate that 1Password no longer has a timeout though, instead allowing you to unlock your database with just your fingerprint at all times. What if your phone is ever stolen and your fingerprint compromised? I can live with access to my phone, but 1Password data is just far too sensitive to leave it to Touch ID.

I think Touch ID is a great tool for simple authentication, but I wish some developers would have a more critical attitude towards it, especially when security is paramount for their products.

Other than that, Touch ID itself is great. The speed and accuracy is incredible and I’m already at the point of no return.
