Hi,
How could we explain that it has been working for me from the get go if it is a software problem? That's what I don't understand. The only slight problem I have is that I have to re-confirm my finger print often for the app store. That is probably due to the fact that I have a problem that makes my screen freeze and I have to reset. When I reset, my finger print to unlock the phone still works but I have to confirm it with the apple store. I think that it is not new but newer technology that still needs a lot of work. Ron & Danvers From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Robin Christopherson Sent: Monday, December 16, 2013 3:45 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Touch ID only works for a couple of days Dear listers I really do think this is a software issue and nothing to do with the sensor or the roughness, smoothness or oddness of ones finger or thumb pads. The reasons why I think this are because firstly Apple wouldn't, in my opinion, settle for a technology that only works for people with 'average' or 'normal' fingerpads - they hold customer satisfaction and press sentiment in too high regard to risk a major popular backlash. My second reason is that it works fine for a day or so then stops working. Reset it and the same again. That says software to me and not hardware. Of course I could just be wishful thinking. As an update I programmed my thumb into three slots a few days ago as you know and, fingers crossed, it seems to be holding out. This could of course be premature and it could stop working tomorrow but this approach of recording the same digit multiple times may just be helping. Any other helpful or alternative suggestions welcomed. By the way it wasn't my intention to start a thread on Apple's approach to releasing immature technologies - we could talk about maps or Siri etc, but I'd rather we focused on solutions.
