We have seen a number of reviews of the new iPhone X and also some hands on videos of the handset. Now we have some details on Face ID on Apple’s new iPhone. On iPhones with a fingerprint scanner you can register more than one person this is not the case with the new model and Face ID.
On the iPhone X you can only register one person’s face for Face ID, Lance Unlanoff from Mashable was told by Apple that the number of people who register more than one persons fringerprints on the iPhone is apparently very low.
One important limitation of Face ID: It only lets you register one face. That may strike many as unnecessarily limiting since Touch ID lets users register up to 10 [sic] fingerprints, but Apple says it found the number of people who register more than one person’s fingerprints is miniscule.
So it looks like there is no way to register multiple users on the new iPhone with Face ID. Instead they will have to enter a passcode to unlock the device, so it is not really that big of a deal. Apple’s new iPhone X launches this Friday and from what we have seen so far this could be Apple’s most popular iPhone so far.
