Apple's Face ID with attention detection fooled by $200 mask

Video: One week using Apple's iPhone X vs. iPhone 8 Plus

Furthermore, I don't believe I've ever accidentally killed an app while merely trying to switch. On the X, swiping into card mode doesn't let the user swipe a card up in the same motion--it's necessary to lift the finger from the display. In other words, accidentally killing is still very difficult. And accidentally killing beyond the first app would be ridiculously difficult.
yes, you are correct. we now have to tap and hold for half a second to generate the minus sign in order to log out of the app when swiping up. otherwise it doesn't log out.
LOL it's not a bug just because you didn't expect the behavior 'unexpected behavior'
"because swiping up on every other iOS device kills the app" welcome to the iPhone X (and the future of an all screen iOS). no more home button means a rethinking of how to interact with the device.

iPhone X impresses Windows executive, Android fans but bitter bloggers still hating

I touch the fingerprint sensor while it's in my pocket or on its way to my line of sight. No sliding to complete the action. From then on I don't log on to anything and am only required to input my banking app's passcode to authenticate a transaction (fingerprint scanner gives read access to my bank app but does not allow for transactions). All websites, social media, Amazon, ISP etc 'just work' because the system knows most of the logon details.
Face ID works just fine and as fast. As the iPhone comes into view with my face I'm already swiping half way up. I do see your point that Touch ID can unlock the phone in your pocket. However my face is not in my pocket (lol) since I'm already in with Face ID when needed I think it doesn't matter. They're both fast at unlocking tho.
Besides unlocking apps (banks, 1Password, etc) Face ID will also auto fill passwords on websites, a super awesome feature btw. Previously anyone would be able to log in to a website with the auto fill. No more tapping to auto fill. Touch ID doesn't do this. And even if it did you couldn't do it from your pocket unless you were on that specific site or app.
FYI, I am lovin the iPhone X. Super awesome upgrade.
