Hi Eric,
Thanks for the note. I did that, but it didn't help. After reading that
blog post though, I concluded that others were getting much better results;
after all, that person seemed surprised when it didn't work. Anyway, I set
it up again using the finger tips of two fingers rather than the middle, and
my results are vastly improved (even at a 180 degree angle).
Best regards.
Geoff

Hi Jeff,
I've found touch iD to work just about every time for me. I read
somewhere that if you are not finding it reliable you should go back to
settings and delete your finger print and set it up again. I have two
fingers set up and I can use them both first try about 90 percent of the
time and just about always get it on the second try if needed. It is very
fast for me as well.
I hope you get yours squared away.

In my experience, touch ID fails more often than it works at any angle.
I've gotten it to function at 180 degrees before, hence from my
experience, I doubt the orientation has any baring. Its a great concept,
but I'm strongly considering disabling it because it gets old entering
one's pass code all the time after one minute of not touching the phone.
I am running IOS 7.04, and still touchID is only working about 20% of the
time.
Best regards.
