Too bad it doesn't whenever your fingers are wet/dirty and or wearing gloves.Touch ID still works flawlessly everytime on my 8+ running iOS 15 while wearing a mask.

Exactly!I wonder how many are having this problem. Based on the reddit thread every single person with a watch/iphone has the problem. You know how it goes with threads on the web. LOL.
If it worked with gloves, that would be scary! That would mean it's unlocking without being able to scan your fingerprint.Too bad it doesn't whenever your fingers are wet/dirty and or wearing gloves.
That's my point... TouchID has failed/cause far more inconveniences than FaceID ever has. People having problems "smiling, off to the side glances" etc. have to either be lying or have the worst luck in the world. I was brushing my teeth yesterday morning and was able to unlock the phone for something.If it worked with gloves, that would be scary!

Whilst true, it could also be affecting other phones which you migrated to using iOS 15.Because it’s only currently affecting iPhone 13 users I presume.
LOL. I've done that so many times at the start of the day.That's my point... TouchID has failed/cause far more inconveniences than FaceID ever has.

Dumb question, but why would this be an iPhone 13 issue and not an iOS 15 issue?
edited to clarify: I understand that it only affects iPhone 13. My question is *why* does it only happen with 13s? If X, 11, 12 and 13 are all running iOS 15, why is it only the 13s with the issue? From what it sounds like, it seems it would be more of a software issue than hardware.
I hope that clarifies things
I’ve got two answers.Dumb question, but why would this be an iPhone 13 issue and not an iOS 15 issue?

We have questions.So glad my 13 mini is working like it should with this feature. So far, I haven't experienced any problems, unlike the 12 mini launch day release lol.
I did not migrate. I installed the iOS 15 update and then set up as new.We have questions.
Did you migrate from an old phone?
Did you upgrade before migration?

I had that last year when I got the AW 6. I unpaired, repaired, wiped, etc. Then it connected, but GPS mapping...on walks/runs didn't work.Everything worked wonderfully on 12 pro, iOS 15. My 13 pro refuses to acknowledge I have an AW.
Or a greasy finger after eating chicken wings. ?How does it do when wearing gloves?
This. I’ve used the “keychain surgery” method in the past with success for Watch/Mac unlock problems. Watch unlock works through Continuity using keys synced via iCloud Keychain. When you unpair your watch iOS will (or should) remove those keys. When you transfer the Watch, new keys must be created on the new iPhone. Possibly the old ones are being migrated or maybe they aren’t being created. This wouldn’t be an if you set up the new iPhone new. The odd thing is that it occurs with many but not all.Well - the *Unlock items are in iCloud Keychain, so it would make some sense.
There was a weird thing there - I had two entries for iPhones, one was 12 mini I used last year and another iPhone 13 Pro I got today, but the dates on those two records were kinda swapped (mini had today's date, 13 much older), so I got them passwords and talks etc recreated but it is still the same.
I did have a moment when I didn't delete all of it and I got the very same error on the Mac so I guess if we had a chance to edit Keychain on iPhone we could fix it.
I'm so used to unlock when wearing a mask but it's not the end of the world, someone will find a fix or it will be solved by an update.
I noticed the same thing. I checked my version afterwards and it still says iOS 15.0.my 13 pro came with iOS 15 installed, but I notice there is an update. Going to give this a try - NEED my watch back. I also did the phone-to-phone data transfer from my 12 pro, watch is dead
