The fingerprint is no longer popular with Apple. The famous iPhone manufacturer, which has almost got rid of its Touch ID technology with the advent of the iPhone X, is not likely to repropos its biometric unlocking solution as soon as its home phones.

No return from Touch ID

Mark Gurman, one of the best informed sources on the apple brand, says it in his last newsletter: “At this point, I think that Face ID is there for good and that Touch ID will not come back to the iPhone in the more or less close future.» This statement shots hopes from those who hoped to see this technology return to future iPhone.

Long replaced by the Face ID tool, which is based on facial recognition mechanisms, Touch ID is becoming increasingly rare on Apple mobile devices. The latest iPhones to be equipped with it are the iPhone 8. A few iPads also continue to embark the fingerprint sensor behind their central buttons, but the manufacturer hardly makes its technology evolve, to the chagrin of customers who prefer unlocking via fingerprint rather than facial recognition.

Apple takes its time

Indeed, if Face ID technology has improved considerably over time, it remains fallible on certain points. At the start of the COVVI-19 pandemic, the system had shown its limits, being difficult to recognize faces bearing a surgical mask (it is now corrected). Apple’s aficionados had therefore caught a return from Touch ID with a sensor under the screen, as made by many Android phones. Rumors even suggested that such technology could happen on the 2025 iPhone or that Apple could move the imprint sensor on the ON/OFF button of its devices.

Unfortunately, according to Mark Gurman, none of these solutions would be envisaged by Apple. The company would have tested these possibilities before giving up. Maybe the company is waiting for the fingerprint sensors to be absolutely flawless from the point of view of safety and efficiency before getting started, but that is not likely to happen soon. The owners of iPhone who want to see Touch ID will have to take their pain in patience.

iPhone 13: Apple tested a Touch ID fingerprint reader under the screen

Apple almost joined a Touch ID fingerprint reader under the iPhone 13 screen. According to information from Bloomberg, the Cupertino giant has finally been changed and decided to abandon the idea, despite the generalization of the health mask. This novelty should wait until next year and the launch of the iPhone 14. In parallel, Apple works on a solution to hide the sensors necessary for facial recognition facing ID under the touch slab.

According to information collected by Mark Gurman, journalist at Bloomberg and an inexhaustible source of information on Apple’s plans, the group founded by Steve Jobs has tested iPhone 13 equipped withA Touch ID fingerprint reader hidden under the screen. The rumor evoking the arrival of this functionality already dates from several months.

While oral masks are compulsory in most countries, facial recognition Face ID, inaugurated in 2017 on the iPhone X, has become less practical than the traditional fingerprint reader. In this context, Apple has worked on a technology to hide the sensor under the slab.

Apple would reserve the side ID without notch for future iPhone Pro

According to Mark Gurman, Apple’s solution is not yet developed. It will therefore not be integrated into the iPhone 13. After months of experiments, the company preferred to postpone the functionality. The new generation of iPhone will have to be satisfied from the front ID. According to the journalist, Apple should however inaugurate the Touch ID under the screen From next year on the iPhone 14. This is also the opinion of Ming-Chi Kuo, a renowned analyst in the world of technology.

In his report, Mark Gurman also assures that Apple is currently developing a solution to slip the TrueDepth sensors, essential to the functioning of the Face ID, under the slab under the slab under the slab under the slab under the slab under the slab under. De facto, The notch could completely disappear. Apple is currently studying the possibility of reserving this face ID under the screen for its future iPhone Pro.

The more affordable models should either be content with facial recognition with notch (such as current iPhone) or a Touch ID fingerprint reader under the screen. Cheaper iPhone could therefore be devoid of front id. We tell you more as soon as possible on future iPhone.
