Do you have to set up a password then to get into that area to do Touch ID?
(Is this a failsafe method so you can get in if/when the Touch ID doesn't
work)?

Subject: RE: Question about passcode and answering phone calls
I completely agree with John. Go to Settings > Touch Id and Passcode, you
have to enter your passcode to get into this area. Then find the Add
Fingerprint button and just follow the instructions. If you set it up right
it will be much easier to unlock your phone using Touch Id, it is even
easier and faster than if you don't set up a passcode and just find and
double tap the u nlock button. If your phone is locked, you still have to
press the home or power button to wake it up, then find the unlock button
and double tap it. Once you set up your fingerprint and have a bit of
practice, you can do it all in one press of the home button. You press it
down briefly to wake up the phone, let go but lightly continue to rest your
finger on the button a second or a bit less and your phone will be unlocked.
Only time it may not work is if your finger is quite wet or if the button
might have gotten very dirty. Apple says that with the 6S and 6S Plus the
Touch Id sensor is new and it is supposed to be up to twice as fast. To me
this is hard to understand because even with my 5S it's almost
instantaneous.

no it doesn't. You may find that using the finger print is easier than the
pass code each time.

Hi,
When I upgraded to I OS 9 yesterday, it made me create a passcode. I
chose not to do the fingerprint, as that seems more complicated to me.
However, now anytime I want to do anything, I have to enter the
passcode. Does that include answering phone calls? I hope not, as that
is very annoying, and takes a little bit of time to enter the
passcode, and by the time you enter it, the call will be ended.
Thank you,
Dacia
PS, if I want to disable the passcode, what I go into settings, and
touch ID, then do something from there?
