I'm not quite sure I understand what your doing. All I need to do on my 5s when my phone is turned on is to place my index finger on the home button. No pressing it, no moving my finger around. I just hold my finger on the sensor and it only takes a second or so to read it. My index finger is usually clean. I know some people are eating snack food and such and get poor results with the finger print sensor. I figure if they can't figure it out for them selves that that's probably not a good idea then maybe an iPhone isn't for them. Rarely do I have a problem opening my 5s and when I do, it's usually because my finger is not clean.
