Head of Software Engineering Applol, Craig Federighi, joined an episode of Daring Fireball's The Talk Show today. The interviews are hosted by writer John Gruber. Craig recalled that a similar scenario is playing out as in 2013 during the show Touch ID on the iPhone 5s – people are unsure. But as soon as the first people got their hands on it iPhone 5s, all doubts have disappeared. Federighi believes this year will be no different and Face ID to allonec wipes his eyes.

"Frankly, we're counting the days until we canoneThe new iPhone X will be in the hands of customers. I think it will turn out the same way as the introduction Touch IDwhen people said: "Apple again it does something that absolutely cannot work and I will definitely not use it or trust it.”
"Now everyone is worried because they are without Touch ID we cannot imagine life. You will see that the same will happen with Face ID. "
In a discussion that reviewed a minor discrepancy on stage when Face ID failed to recognize Craig's face, he told us he was shocked because this feature always worked correctly without any hitches (you'll find out how it really was in this article(I recommend reading it). He also said that he understood people's uncertainty, but all doubts should disappear as soon as people iPhone X is turned on for the first time. "Using Face ID "I don't even notice, it doesn't occur to me that I'm unlocking the phone in any way," he said.

Federighi also further stated that Apple he loves Touch ID, Of Face ID is simply better. He confirmed that Face ID is the future of biometric authentication.
The rest of this interview was conducted in a similar vein to the one with TechCrunch. Craig emphasized that with Face ID most sunglasses will work too (except those that have a filter so strong that they don't let in enough infrared light)If you want to use Face ID Even if you wear very dark glasses, you can still turn off the feature that requires eye contact to unlock your iPhone X.
He also explained why users have to swipe their finger across the display to use their smartphone.one unlock. This is so you can safely check your notifications or check your battery percentage.

No one has yet explained to me how it will work with identical twins, at least they have different fingerprints.
Are there many others who will have bigger problems?
David Prej Zeq you see, it's just not thought out in my opinion, will passwords be fought like in the Middle Ages?
You definitely have it figured out, don't worry?
He asks how many % of identical twins will recognize it as one person. It probably won't be a big %. They, even identical twins, do not have the same shape, they are just very similar, but they are mostly different in details. Here the question is how much the recognition algorithm is set to details and various asymmetries of the shape.
Well, with some twins, I'd say there won't be a problem. Anyway, they are usually so close twins that I think they are lesbians...
Many times I take my phone out of my pocket just to check the time and I don't want it to unlock every time - how is this protected?
the phone will be unlocked, but you will only get to the home screen when you use a new one home button, that is, you pull it from the bottom up...
Peter Ruman it touch ID has the option of unlocking the setting only after pressing the button home – that's how I put the unlocked phone back in my pocket
"He also explained why users have to swipe their finger across the display to use their smartphone."one unlock. This is so you can safely check your notifications or check your battery percentage.” ?
I see that most of you here could work as an engineer in some way. appWow, I see how smart you are. Surely no one thought of that during development, don't you want to jump in and give them some smart advice?
Pro For me it will have 2 drawbacks:
1. When I drive, I keep my phone in a holder that doesn't point at my face. touch ID I can touch it, but with the X I will have to tilt the phone or take it out.
2.I often have my phone on the table and I just tap home button and I see notifications or directly open the phone, that won't be possible with the X.
Hi, I think these shortcomings are also solved :)
1. iPhone X should be scanning you even if it's not facing directly at you.
2. Article excerpt – “He also explained why users have to swipe their finger across the display to use their smartphone.”one unlock. This is so you can safely check your notifications or check your battery percentage.”
1. I'm curious about how he would detect me when I'm probably out of his field of vision. I haven't tested it, but I'm guessing that maxwill at least see part of the forehead and hair
2. you're right, but I'll probably have to press some side button or raise it slightly.
I don't want to slander it, I believe they have it worked out, I'm just curious about these two situations.
Tapping the display turns it on without unlocking.
It should be noted that unlock and display homescreen are still 2 things.
Even today with touchiD only HB touch (i.e. fingerprint recognition) iPhone unlocks but leaves the lockscreen displayed. Only when you press HB will it appear homescreen.
It will be the same here. The place of the fingerprint will be a look and the place of pressing the HB will be a swipe with a finger like in the days before touchID.
I'm especially curious about how Face ID will be presented in apple store.. I would like to try it myself before I buy it.. and I'm curious where I will try it in the dark..
I often just tap with a different finger or from a different angle. Home button to look at the clock or check notifications on the same locked screen. And only then did I complete the fingerprint gesture, but maybe not and I let it go – that seems absolutely great to me. And now, according to the last paragraph in the article, it is handled by swiping across the display. So also a gesture, but then it recognizes me and unlocks me straight away, so it nestI'll read it. And if I wanted to prevent unlocking, I could just close my eyes, but I probably wouldn't read much of it, would I? ? Unless there's another step, but that wouldn't be much of a simplification.
Yes, that's true, but after a while you get used to it, like me when I want to read a notification and I click on home button and it will open automatically. It happened to me at first, but now it's fine
You tap on the display, it lights up and you can check your notifications. If you have it aimed at your face, it will unlock right away, but even in this case you will still be on the locked screen and you can check your notifications. If you want to go further, swipe up. Easy.
Pro To unlock it, you need to scroll up, right? So you can read it completely calmly.
And also, FaceID has nothing to do with eyes, so the phone should open with both eyes open and eyes closed
I believe all models will have it next year iPhone. I am sorry, however, that Apple (in this case unnecessarily) divides into three phones. iPhone, iPhone More than iPhone X.
