Welcome to the future... Time to move on.
Anyway, if you are able to glance at your iPhone X there is a feature that you 
can enable in settings, accessibility, Face ID and passcode. David has a good 
point about the cameras being useful for the blind with improved OCR.

Hi. This morning I read an article where younger sibling managed to unlock an 
iPhone 10 and they were most definitely not twins. Mac rumours has the story.

Hi,

Yes, you are correct with respect to the identical twins aspect of this 
feature, although photos, masks and such have no bearing in this process as the 
identification process is a 3D process, therefore, 2D photos are immaterial.  
This can be affirmed in the same article you partially posted.  My main point 
is that we need to be careful when posting opinions of potential, unproven 
deficiencies.

Hi Robin,

do you have some credible source to support your belief about the level of 
security of a Face ID vs a finger-print sensor?  I'm not sure if one is 
actually more secure than the other, just another method to do things.  As I've 
mentioned a few times before, when the finger-print sensor was first introduced 
on the iPhone, there was tons of noise made about it's probable lack of 
security compared to the good old pass-code.  Now that we've had it for a 
while, many people are making it sound like it's the best thing yet and 
anything new won't do.  We are all welcome to our opinions, but I believe that 
it is beneficial to base these opinions on sound research, rather than 
hear-say.  You may be right in the end, I'm really not sure, but I haven't seen 
anything but arm-chair opinions so far.

Probably Not

Hi Tim,

Facial recog is more secure than finger prints in this products case.

But yes an identical twin would be required and then I believe may still 
struggle.

I'll be surprised if someone doesn't crack the facial recognition some time 
soonn as they did pretty quickly with samsungs galaxy s8 version of it.
Which I believe is only retinal scan. Or was it iris scanning.

But either way,
If the looking directly at the phone / screen feature is auto disabled if vo is 
active, is that not a good feature for us as they have seen there may be an 
issue for blind / VI users looking actually at the phone camera.
To me this is a forward thought.

Hi,

While I don't wish to minimize anyone's concerns, Face ID even without the eye 
contact feature is still very secure.  You basically need to be a twin to be 
able to fool the system from most things I've heard or read.  When the 
finger-print sensor was first introduced on the iPhone, there was quite a bit 
of noise made about possible security flaws, and now we're touting it as more 
secure than Face ID.  I'm just not confident in many of these opinions out 
there.  Joe Public just doesn't have the in-depth data required to do a proper 
assessment of its true security risks.

The thing that makes me sad is that Apple, by all accounts, including theirs, 
is abandoning touch ID completely on the phone. The security issue is 
specifically if you disable that part of face id that requires you to actually 
look at the phone. I think I read that this will be off by default if the 
system detects VO is in use. And this means there is less security to the face 
id feature than is the case if this setting is left enabled.
