Replacing Touch ID with Face ID
The down sides to using a Face ID are numbered more than those using Touch ID. Apple is attempting to make our IPhones safer with a security feature that won't be useful in many ways. Like Craig Federighi at it's first demo, you don't know if it's the phone or you that's doing something wrong. Another downside is that when the phone reboots you can't unlock it. Many people who were at the demo saw first hand how stressful and annoying this new feature will be. Touch ID requires less stress and is convenient. There fore many people will most likely use this ID instead.
Personally, I feel that this is a bad idea on Apple's part. What happens if someone uses a face mold to unlock it? Would it work? And if it did, that means we've entered a whole new ball game. It reminds me of a rumor that in the distant future your regular ID (in the military) would be a retina scan. Which also has the draw back of contact lenses, the blind (yes they work in the military too) and many other problems. So yeah Apple, please reconsider this feature before you actually release it!
