  • Apple quietly toughens rules forcing passcode unlocks of Touch ID devices

    Jamman2Jamman2
    Apple needs to implement a "disable" Touch ID finger so one can designate a finger that will lock the phone further to password mode. For example maybe my right thumb is my normal Touch ID unlock finger, but my left thumb will deactivate Touch ID immediately. 
    This way someone being coerced to unlock with their fingerprint (which was just allowed in a court ruling) could further lock the phone down. Or let's say I get pulled over and the cop is walking towards my car, I could quickly use the deactivate finger to further lock down the phone. 
    They could even offer further options like a full wipe or a phone shutdown or sending a pre-programmed emergency text or email with gps coordinates to someone. Or immediately start recording video or audio. 
    Like a "panic finger"

    Please email Apple and request this feature.
