We told you how to use the new feature of iOS 11.
Apple once again decided to worry about the safety of its users. The Quick Disable Touch ID feature gives iPhone owners the opportunity to maximize the protection of their smartphones in the event of various emergency situations. By blocking Touch ID, the user will prevent an attacker from gaining access to the iPhone by placing the owners’ fingers on the scanner. Of course (and fortunately), such situations rarely arise, but Apple decided to provide for the actions of its customers in them.
Another reason for the appearance iOS 11 The function of quickly disabling Touch ID on the iPhone is associated with Apple’s desire to protect its users from law enforcement agencies. There have been several cases over the past year in which police officers have literally forced suspects to provide access to their iPhones by scanning their fingerprints.
The most high-profile of these cases occurred in February. A Norwegian resident suspected of committing a crime was required to unlock his iPhone using Touch ID. According to the court ruling, fingerprint locking of smartphones was recognized as unprotected by the country's constitution. This means that upon request of the police, any iPhone user is required to remove the lock from their Touch ID-protected smartphone.
Note: This feature only works on iPhones running iOS 11 or later.
To disable Touch ID on your iPhone, you need to quickly press the Power button five times in a row. Successful completion of the operation will display a screen asking you to turn off your iPhone or make an emergency call. At the same time, the function blocks Touch ID, indicating that to activate the fingerprint scanner you need to enter a passcode. In this case, you can only unlock your iPhone using a password. Both iOS 11 and previous versions of the operating system install a similar restriction after each iPhone reboot.
You do not need to make any special settings to enable the function. Moreover, these same settings are not provided in iOS. On the menu " Settings» → « Emergency call - SOS“Users can only activate the option of auto-calling an emergency number by pressing the “Power” button five times and set up contacts in case of emergency. Recent contacts will receive notification messages if you call emergency services.
What password can be called the most reliable and at the same time constantly accessible to the owner of the equipment? Fingerprint. The new Touch ID uses a fingerprint sensor as a means of identification. This method allows you to quickly connect to another Apple device and at the same time be confident in the security of the stored data.
Of course, the question immediately arises: Touch ID - what is it? The device itself, the technology or, in general, the phone model? Apple Touch ID is a technology that involves the use of a sensor that recognizes the user's unique fingerprint pattern. The unlocking process is simple: just place your finger on the Home button. The installed sensor reads the received data from absolutely any angle and in any way the iPad is positioned.
The iPad mini 3 unlock button is made of sapphire glass, which is enclosed in a stainless steel ring. Each part: the ring detects touch, and the glass part transmits fingerprint data to the sensor. The reading program performs a comparative analysis and signals compliance. It is noteworthy that the Touch ID sensor performs the entire operation within a fraction of a second.
Advantages of the technology:
Unfortunately, it is not yet possible to put a single checkmark to implement the functions of the technology. Then a logical question arises: how to enable Touch ID?
First of all, you should deal with the initial setup. She :
If the device is activated, then the initial setup can be done through the main menu: by going to “Settings”, select “Touch ID and password”, then “Fingerprints”. The system itself will offer to go through the described registration process and about fingerprints.

To unlock an iPhone using technology, simply wake it up from sleep mode by pressing the “Power” or “Home” buttons, and then place your finger on the “Home” button. To use the sensor as an account identifier, you need to go to the settings section, then select “Touch ID and password” and activate “iTunes Store, App Store”.

Undoubtedly, but what should you do if Touch ID stops working or does not work initially? There may be several reasons for this:
With customization of the functionality, the functions in each application are more than covered by convenience, speed of operation and optimization of purchasing processes. Although the possibility of a marriage that could bring trouble cannot be ruled out.
In iOS 10, Apple updated the lock screen design by removing the slide unlock and changed the unlock interactions on most of the latest devices.
On the iPhone 6s, 6s Plus, 7 and 7 Plus, a new feature has become available “Raise to Wake”, which automatically wakes up the iPhone screen if you lift the smartphone, but to fully unlock the device you need to additionally press the physical button “ Home", in some cases it is necessary to press the Touch ID button twice to successfully unlock. iOS 9 didn't actually require button presses to unlock your iPhone.
Changes to the iPhone unlocking system have become annoying for some users, but fortunately, there is a way to fix it and return everything to the way it was in iOS 9.
