RE: Face ID Revisited

2022-01-06 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
There is no need to reset anything, you just go to Settings > Face I d and 
Passcode, enter your passcode to get into the protected settings area and then 
swipe down until you find "Alternate appearance".
Double tap on that and complete the setup.
At the same time make sure you have turned all the things where you want Face 
Id to work, e.g. iPhone Unlock, iTunes and App Store, Wallet and Apple Pay etc.

Below the spot where you first put in your face ID there’s a place to put a 
secondary Face ID let me go right now and get the proper words for it. On my 
screen it says reset Face ID and then it says a secondary Face ID has been done 
and if you wish to add another Face ID you have to reset Face ID so if you 
didn’t put in an alternate Face ID then that’s where you would find it. Because 
I did, it’s telling me that it’s already been done. I hope this helps. Any 
further questions ask away and I’ll try to help. All I can tell you is that 
that adds that alternate ID ads an extra boost to Face ID and helps the phone 
to open. Also underneath the alternate ID is attention  you want to turn that 
off. If that’s on you have to directly look at your phone, and for me as a 
totally blind person I cannot do that. As I said keep asking and keep trying 
it’s going to happen and you’ll feel pretty proud of yourself when it does.

Fazil, I might suggest to you that you put in the other face ID. There are two 
places that you can set up Face ID apparently it’s for someone else that might 
be using your phone. However, I found that it works even better if I set it up 
with both Face ID places. Hope this helps. Both the face ID and the swipe up 
from the bottom are hard to get used to and hard to do at first especially if 
you’re totally blind, but they do work and Apple has greatly improved Face ID. 
When I had a iPhone X it worked probably 80% of the time or 90% of the time. 
Now unless I don’t pull it up to my face fast enough it works about 95 to 98% 
of the time. The biggest thing that I have had to get used to is that Face ID 
pops up more often on apps such as my banking app suddenly and I don’t have the 
position correctly. Now I try to keep it in position as much as I can if I know 
that there’s a chance that Face ID will come up. I had trouble with my SE 2020 
and the fingerprint sensor I think it worked probably 60% of the time. This 
probably was because my fingers tend to be quite dry and at times cracked. 
However Face ID as I said now works with my iPhone 12 probably 95 to 98% of the 
time.

Hi Fazzel,

 It's not really two places,
But there is an option in the face id setup section of settings,

That will allow you to setup an alternate or secondary face id option,


For situation like you might share your phone with a wife or partner and they 
might want a face id on there also.

I personally think you're fine with what you have 
So get use to what's working and with your pin code you should be fine,
No need to have the other face id setup .

Good luck.

Fazil, if it is any consolation, I am having the same struggle with face ID. I 
have mastered the gestures to get to things without the home button, but face 
ID continues to bedevil me. Interestingly, sometimes it will work with no 
problem and I have no idea why, but mostly, I cannot unlock my phone using my 
face. I have attention turned off and like you, I have successfully gone 
through the training exercise multiple times, with and without sighted help, 
which ends with a message that face ID was successfully set up, but for reasons 
I can’t understand, mostly it does not work. I have only had the phone for 3 
days and I know that other blind people out there with prosthetic eyes are 
doing face ID successfully, so I refuse to give up, but I admit it is quite 
frustrating since I love everything else about my 13 Pro. I have even reset the 
face ID several times in different light and dark situations, with and without 
sighted help, and even set up an alternate face, but still no joy. Also, it is 
very hard to get the keypad to come up to enter the passcode. You will have to 
learn the new gestures for getting to the home screen, control center, app 
switcher, etc., but I did not find that very difficult after practice. I know 
that I have to embrace change and except new things, and again, I like this 
bigger phone and I love the battery life compared to my iPhone 8, so I don’t 
want to go back to that phone again, but I hate using a passcode to 
authenticate, so I am really hoping that I can get this worked out. I wish us 
both patience and good luck. LOL.

Re: Face ID Revisited

2022-01-05 Thread regina alvarado
Fazil, I might suggest to you that you put in the other face ID. There are two 
places that you can set up Face ID apparently it’s for someone else that might 
be using your phone. However, I found that it works even better if I set it up 
with both Face ID places. Hope this helps. Both the face ID and the swipe up 
from the bottom are hard to get used to and hard to do at first especially if 
you’re totally blind, but they do work and Apple has greatly improved Face ID. 
When I had a iPhone X it worked probably 80% of the time or 90% of the time. 
Now unless I don’t pull it up to my face fast enough it works about 95 to 98% 
of the time. The biggest thing that I have had to get used to is that Face ID 
pops up more often on apps such as my banking app suddenly and I don’t have the 
position correctly. Now I try to keep it in position as much as I can if I know 
that there’s a chance that Face ID will come up. I had trouble with my SE 2020 
and the fingerprint sensor I think it worked probably 60% of the time. This 
probably was because my fingers tend to be quite dry and at times cracked. 
However Face ID as I said now works with my iPhone 12 probably 95 to 98% of the 
time.

Hi Fazil,

After your wake up your phone do the same as you would do when you want to go 
back to your home screen. You mentioned you have learned how to do that and how 
to bring up the app switcher, it's no different when you want to use Face Id.
First, press the side button and then touch the screen near the bottom and when 
you hear the little tone  swipe up until you feel a vibration, then look at the 
phone or hold the phone so it faces you while you do it and it will unlock 
right away.

Is swipe up same as flick up that we do when select a month or a day? Or is it

Or, is this like dragging/rubbing my fingertip on the screen-surface starting 
from the bottom edge of the screen and drag it to the middle of it?
I am very sorry for being vague.

Fazil, after you wake up your phone you first have to swipe up from the bottom 
of the screen. If I hold my iPhone in front of my face with the screen locked 
and then press the side button the lock screen comes up but nothing else 
happens. As soon as I touch near the bottom of the phone and swipe up about 
half way Face Id is activated and my phone unlocks instantly.

As for Chris's concern, I also have my bank apps, credit card apps and so on 
installed on my phone, but they need separate verification and while you can 
set most of such apps to also use Face Id, you don't have to. If you were 
really concerned, why not at least allow the phone to be unlocked with Face Id, 
but set up your important apps to require you to enter your password?
As for a thief holding the phone up to my face, first of all said thief has to 
get a hold of my phone which if it is a grab and run means he won't have time 
to unlock it by holding it up to my face. If you had Touch Id before, did you 
also not use it? After all, a thief could just force you to put your finger on 
the home button and for that matter, how much paid would you take before you 
give him your passcode?

Fázil, just keep trying my friend. I think you either have it tipped back too 
far or you’re not putting it at the right distance from your face. If you have 
attention turned off it’s just a matter of putting it just about 10 inches from 
your face. I had a terrible time at the beginning. Sometimes I still have 
trouble, but it really does work. It’s just that you have to practice it. It’s 
just like those little blimps on the bottom and the top. It takes time to get 
used to doing it. It takes practice to do it properly. It will come, and then 
you’ll feel just as comfortable with Face ID as you did with the home button. 
Hang in there. happy new year to you and to everyone!

RE: Face ID Revisited

The Genius-bar in the Apple Store tried to setup my Face ID for me but he could 
not do it either. He said that it can not be set up in the store.

Fazil, if it is any consolation, I am having the same struggle with face ID. I

RE: Face ID Revisited

2022-01-02 Thread Christopher Chaltain
Plus, it's easy to stumble across how to disable VoiceOver with a web search. 
Almost any kind of generic web search on VoiceOver will bring up a bunch of 
hits on how to turn off VoiceOver. I'm assuming sighted people will 
accidentally turn it on and go looking on how to disable it.

True, except that if the sighted person knows how to turn voice over off with 
the side button three clicks, or familiar with the ability of siri to turn 
voice over on or off, the screen curtain becomes useless. Even with the screen 
curtain on, the minute you turn voice over off, the screen immediately lights 
up.

I guess I see your point but you seem to be sacrificing a lot of convenience 
for the supposed risk. Only you can assess the reel risk to which you're 
exposed but unless your thief also gets your passcode or takes your face too, 
it seems unlikely they'll gain access to all your stuff. Each financial app

Fazil, after you wake up your phone you first have to swipe up from the bottom 
of the screen. If I hold my iPhone in front of my face with the screen locked 
and then press the side button the lock screen comes up but nothing else 
happens. As soon as I touch near the bottom of the phone and swipe up about 
half way Face Id is activated and my phone unlocks instantly.

 

As for Chris's concern, I also have my bank apps, credit card apps and so on 
installed on my phone, but they need separate verification and while you can 
set most of such apps to also use Face Id, you don't have to. If you were 
really concerned, why not at least allow the phone to be unlocked with Face Id, 
but set up your important apps to require you to enter your password?

As for a thief holding the phone up to my face, first of all said thief has to 
get a hold of my phone which if it is a grab and run means he won't have time 
to unlock it by holding it up to my face. If you had Touch Id before, did you 
also not use it? After all, a thief could just force you to put your finger on 
the home button and for that matter, how much paid would you take before you 
give him your passcode?

Hi, Cris.

How do you unlock the phone with the passcode?

I, for instance, ask Siri to launch Messages for me and she wants me unlock the 
phone first with the number pad on the screen. I type the passcode and Messages 
app opens. But I can not go to homepage from there. Again I have to ask Siri to 
open certain apps for me but, since the phone is unlocked now, she does not ask 
for the passcode.

My phone the 13 pro max and the earlier 11 pro max let me know with voiceover 
when my face was out of alignment with the camera 

 

So if you listen to the voiceover prompts aas you setup face id 

It should let you kno what you have to do  as you go through the process.

Fázil, just keep trying my friend. I think you either have it tipped back too 
far or you’re not putting it at the right distance from your face. If you have 
attention turned off it’s just a matter of putting it just about 10 inches from 
your face. I had a terrible time at the beginning. Sometimes I still have 
trouble, but it really does work. It’s just that you have to practice it. It’s 
just like those little blimps on the bottom and the top. It takes time to get 
used to doing it. It takes practice to do it properly. It will come, and then 
you’ll feel just as comfortable with Face ID as you did with the home button. 
Hang in there. happy new year to you and to everyone!

True, except that if the sighted person knows how to turn voice over off with 
the side button three clicks, or familiar with the ability of siri to turn 
voice over on or off, the screen curtain becomes useless. Even with the screen 
curtain on, the minute you turn voice over off, the screen immediately lights

RE: Face ID Revisited

2022-01-01 Thread Fazil M.
Thanks much, Sieghard.

Is swipe up same as flick up that we do when select a month or a day? Or is it 
like as we move icon to icon?

Or, is this like dragging/rubbing my fingertip on the screen-surface starting 
from the bottom edge of the screen and drag it to the middle of it?

I am very sorry for being vague.

Thanks again.

Fazil, after you wake up your phone you first have to swipe up from the bottom 
of the screen. If I hold my iPhone in front of my face with the screen locked 
and then press the side button the lock screen comes up but nothing else 
happens. As soon as I touch near the bottom of the phone and swipe up about 
half way Face Id is activated and my phone unlocks instantly.

 

As for Chris's concern, I also have my bank apps, credit card apps and so on 
installed on my phone, but they need separate verification and while you can 
set most of such apps to also use Face Id, you don't have to. If you were 
really concerned, why not at least allow the phone to be unlocked with Face Id, 
but set up your important apps to require you to enter your password?

As for a thief holding the phone up to my face, first of all said thief has to 
get a hold of my phone which if it is a grab and run means he won't have time 
to unlock it by holding it up to my face. If you had Touch Id before, did you 
also not use it? After all, a thief could just force you to put your finger on 
the home button and for that matter, how much paid would you take before you 
give him your passcode?

Hi, Cris.

How do you unlock the phone with the passcode?

I, for instance, ask Siri to launch Messages for me and she wants me unlock the 
phone first with the number pad on the screen. I type the passcode and Messages 
app opens. But I can not go to homepage from there. Again I have to ask Siri to 
open certain apps for me but, since the phone is unlocked now, she does not ask 
for the passcode.

very hard to get the keypad to come up to enter the passcode. You will have to 
learn the new gestures for getting to the home screen, control center, app

You may want to go back and see your Hindi-speaking Apple employee and ask her

RE: Face ID Revisited

2022-01-01 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Fazil, the camera sees a lot, just don't hold it too close to your face. I just 
did a few tests, if I held it really close like just the length of a finger 
away from my face, it didn't work,. I then moved it a bit further and it 
unlocked, it seems 6 or 8 inches is even enough, but then I also tried it 
holding it as far away as I could which means basically at arms length and it 
also worked so there definitely is quite a lot of wiggle room. Usually if you 
hold it about 30 cm away as Caroline suggested it should be fine.

Hi, Cris.

How do you unlock the phone with the passcode?

I, for instance, ask Siri to launch Messages for me and she wants me unlock the 
phone first with the number pad on the screen. I type the passcode and Messages 
app opens. But I can not go to homepage from there. Again I have to ask Siri to 
open certain apps for me but, since the phone is unlocked now, she does not ask 
for the passcode.

Fázil, just keep trying my friend. I think you either have it tipped 
back too far or you’re not putting it at the right distance from your face. If 
you have attention turned off it’s just a matter of putting it just about 10 
inches from your face. I had a terrible time at the beginning. Sometimes I 
still have trouble, but it really does work. It’s just that you have to 
practice it. It’s just like those little blimps on the bottom and the top. It 
takes time to get used to doing it. It takes practice to do it properly. It

And let's not forget that many iPhones may be stolen for parts, the fact is 
that if an iPhone has a passcode nobody will get into it, after all, even the 
government has a lot of problems to gert into a locked phone, but that doesn't 
mean they can't sell the screen and battery etc. to a repair shop or ship them 
off to Asia or some place where they are used to fix somebody's phone.

Cris, 

I guess I see your point but you seem to be sacrificing a lot of convenience 
for the supposed risk. Only you can assess the reel risk to which you're 
exposed but unless your thief also gets your passcode or takes your face too, 
it seems unlikely they'll gain access to all your stuff. Each financial app 
requires face ID to access it and without your passcode, the face ID cannot be 
reset. And I would think face ID with attention turned on would be more 
convenient than entering a four or six digit PIN every time. But to each his 
own.

RE: Face ID Revisited

2022-01-01 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Fazil, after you wake up your phone you first have to swipe up from the bottom 
of the screen. If I hold my iPhone in front of my face with the screen locked 
and then press the side button the lock screen comes up but nothing else 
happens. As soon as I touch near the bottom of the phone and swipe up about 
half way Face Id is activated and my phone unlocks instantly.

As for Chris's concern, I also have my bank apps, credit card apps and so on 
installed on my phone, but they need separate verification and while you can 
set most of such apps to also use Face Id, you don't have to. If you were 
really concerned, why not at least allow the phone to be unlocked with Face Id, 
but set up your important apps to require you to enter your password?
As for a thief holding the phone up to my face, first of all said thief has to 
get a hold of my phone which if it is a grab and run means he won't have time 
to unlock it by holding it up to my face. If you had Touch Id before, did you 
also not use it? After all, a thief could just force you to put your finger on 
the home button and for that matter, how much paid would you take before you 
give him your passcode?

My phone the 13 pro max and the earlier 11 pro max let me know with voiceover 
when my face was out of alignment with the camera 

 

So if you listen to the voiceover prompts aas you setup face id 

It should let you kno what you have to do  as you go through the process.

RE: Face ID Revisited

2022-01-01 Thread Simon A Fogarty
Hi Fassle,

Just wondering if you have voiceover on when you are trying to setup face id?

My phone the 13 pro max and the earlier 11 pro max let me know with voiceover 
when my face was out of alignment with the camera

So if you listen to the voiceover prompts aas you setup face id
It should let you kno what you have to do  as you go through the process.

Fázil, just keep trying my friend. I think you either have it tipped back too 
far or you’re not putting it at the right distance from your face. If you have 
attention turned off it’s just a matter of putting it just about 10 inches from 
your face. I had a terrible time at the beginning. Sometimes I still have 
trouble, but it really does work. It’s just that you have to practice it. It’s 
just like those little blimps on the bottom and the top. It takes time to get 
used to doing it. It takes practice to do it properly. It will come, and then 
you’ll feel just as comfortable with Face ID as you did with the home button. 
Hang in there. happy new year to you and to everyone!

True, except that if the sighted person knows how to turn voice over off with 
the side button three clicks, or familiar with the ability of siri to turn 
voice over on or off, the screen curtain becomes useless. Even with the screen 
curtain on, the minute you turn voice over off, the screen immediately lights 
up.

Fazil, if it is any consolation, I am having the same struggle with face ID. I 
have mastered the gestures to get to things without the home button, but face 
ID continues to bedevil me. Interestingly, sometimes it will work with no 
problem and I have no idea why, but mostly, I cannot unlock my phone using my 
face. I have attention turned off and like you, I have successfully gone 
through the training exercise multiple times, with and without sighted help, 
which ends with a message that face ID was successfully set up, but for reasons 
I can’t understand, mostly it does not work. I have only had the phone for 3 
days and I know that other blind people out there with prosthetic eyes are 
doing face ID successfully, so I refuse to give up, but I admit it is quite 
frustrating since I love everything else about my 13 Pro. I have even reset the 
face ID several times in different light and dark situations, with and without 
sighted help, and even set up an alternate face, but still no joy. Also, it is 
very hard to get the keypad to come up to enter the passcode. You will have to 
learn the new gestures for getting to the home screen, control center, app 
switcher, etc., but I did not find that very difficult after practice. I know 
that I have to embrace change and except new things, and again, I like this 
bigger phone and I love the battery life compared to my iPhone 8, so I don’t 
want to go back to that phone again, but I hate using a passcode to 
authenticate, so I am really hoping that I can get this worked out. I wish us 
both patience and good luck. LOL.

RE: Face ID Revisited

2022-01-01 Thread Fazil M.
Thanks much, Lynn.

It, indeed, is a big consolation and great commiseration to know that you are 
not alone suffering this…….*smile). I find the keypad with relative ease.

How do you go to homepage once the phone is unlocked?

Thanks!

Fazil, if it is any consolation, I am having the same struggle with face ID. I 
have mastered the gestures to get to things without the home button, but face 
ID continues to bedevil me. Interestingly, sometimes it will work with no 
problem and I have no idea why, but mostly, I cannot unlock my phone using my 
face. I have attention turned off and like you, I have successfully gone 
through the training exercise multiple times, with and without sighted help, 
which ends with a message that face ID was successfully set up, but for reasons 
I can’t understand, mostly it does not work. I have only had the phone for 3 
days and I know that other blind people out there with prosthetic eyes are 
doing face ID successfully, so I refuse to give up, but I admit it is quite 
frustrating since I love everything else about my 13 Pro. I have even reset the 
face ID several times in different light and dark situations, with and without 
sighted help, and even set up an alternate face, but still no joy. Also, it is 
very hard to get the keypad to come up to enter the passcode. You will have to 
learn the new gestures for getting to the home screen, control center, app 
switcher, etc., but I did not find that very difficult after practice. I know 
that I have to embrace change and except new things, and again, I like this 
bigger phone and I love the battery life compared to my iPhone 8, so I don’t 
want to go back to that phone again, but I hate using a passcode to 
authenticate, so I am really hoping that I can get this worked out. I wish us 
both patience and good luck. LOL.

Fázil, just keep trying my friend. I think you either have it tipped 
back too far or you’re not putting it at the right distance from your face. If 
you have attention turned off it’s just a matter of putting it just about 10 
inches from your face. I had a terrible time at the beginning. Sometimes I 
still have trouble, but it really does work. It’s just that you have to 
practice it. It’s just like those little blimps on the bottom and the top. It

Hi Group.

I am having problem with using Face ID to unlock my iPhone12.

I successfully complete two steps of setting up face ID and double 
tapped Done Button and iPhone says face ID is ready to use. Attention is off 
too.

I am unable to unlock phone with face id.

Any more tips to unlock phone with face id is much appreciated.

Thanks!

Cris, 

I guess I see your point but you seem to be sacrificing a lot of convenience 
for the supposed risk. Only you can assess the reel risk to which you're 
exposed but unless your thief also gets your passcode or takes your face too, 
it seems unlikely they'll gain access to all your stuff. Each financial app 
requires face ID to access it and without your passcode, the face ID cannot be 
reset. And I would think face ID with attention turned on would be more 
convenient than entering a four or six digit PIN every time. But to each his 
own.

Fázil, just keep trying my friend. I think you either have it tipped 
back too far or you’re not putting it at the right distance from your face. If 
you have attention turned off it’s just a matter of putting it just about 10 
inches from your face. I had a terrible time at the beginning. Sometimes I 
still have trouble, but it really does work. It’s just that you have to 
practice it. It’s just like those little blimps on the bottom and the top. It 
takes time to get used to doing it. It takes practice to do it properly. It 
will come, and then you’ll feel just as comfortable with Face ID as you did 
with the home button. Hang in there. happy new year to you and to everyone!

The ear piece should be about to the level to the top or a little above the 
nose. The phone should be held out about a foot opposite your face at a level, 
where you entire face is in focus of the phone.

Hi, Cris.

How do you unlock the phone with the passcode?

I, for instance, ask Siri to launch Messages for me and she wants me unlock the 
phone first with the number pad on the screen. I type the passcode and Messages 
app opens. But I can not go to homepage from there. Again I have to ask Siri to 
open certain apps for me but, since the phone is unlocked now, she does not ask 
for the passcode.

RE: Face ID Revisited

Should the earpiece in front of my upper lip or my nose or somewhere else?

Fázil, just keep trying my friend. I think you either have it tipped back too 
far or you’re not putting it at the right distance from your face. If you have 
attention turned off it’s just a matter of putting it just about 10 inches from 
your face. I had a terrible time at the beginning. Sometimes I still have 
trouble, but it really does work. It’s just that you have to practice it. It’s 
just like those little blimps on the bottom and the top. It takes time to get 
used to doing it. It takes practice to do it properly. It will come, and then 
you’ll feel just as comfortable with Face ID as you did with the home button. 
Hang in there. happy new year to you and to everyone!

Hi Group.

I am having problem with using Face ID to unlock my iPhone12.

I successfully complete two steps of setting up face ID and double tapped Done 
Button and iPhone says face ID is ready to use. Attention is off too.

I am unable to unlock phone with face id.

Any more tips to unlock phone with face id is much appreciated.

Thanks!
