Hi Mohammad So glad you said that about Face ID. I find it almost impossible and not just with Apple Pay.
I have asked other blind friends and they say they have no bother at all. it is a particular pain with banking apps, as I have had to switch it off and that is not a very good idea. Any suggestions as to a reliable way to activate Face ID when you can't see it all would be very gratefully received TIA Adrienne Sent from my iPhone Please note, I often use dictation when writing emails on my phone and sometimes it doesn’t work out the way I think it has.
