I know I'm a bit late to the party on this topic but I just now got an iPhone with Touch ID. I believe if I want to turn on Touch ID, iOS requires me to also have a passcode as a backup mechanism. What I really want to use Touch ID for is when getting new apps to be able to put my finger on the home button and not have to type in my Apple ID password. What I don't want to have to do is to type in my passcode or provide my fingerprint whenever my screen locks and I want to start it again. So far, I've been unable to figure out a setting that will let me use my Touch ID fingerprint to get apps without also having to provide either my Touch ID fingerprint or passcode when my phone locks.
Can someone tell me if what I want is possible and the steps to do so if it is? Thanks in advance. Alan Lemly -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.
