Apple Focuses On Onscreen Touch ID

Touch ID under the iPhone 13 screen

The Cupertino company continues to be reluctant to include biometric identification technology in the display, which although some companies have developed poorly, there are others like Huawei or Xiaomi that implement these very well. systems on their mobile phones.

This is why Apple, which does not want to be outdone, is studying the implementation of a Touch ID on the screen accompanying the current Face ID.

A series of patents accompanies this idea that the Cupertino company does not want to abandon the Touch ID definitively but … isn’t it too late for that? A new implementation never hurts.

We start by warning, the inclusion of this technology is completely excluded for the arrival of the iPhone 13, it is rather expected for the iPhone 14 or the name that Apple decides to give to its device in 2022. From this way, the brand has worked on a patent named “display of electronic devices for through-screen imaging” as explained in Apple Insider

. In theory, the deployment of the patent relates to the possibility of making a specific capture of our fingerprint when we touch a certain part of the screen, With a very simplistic formula, this is what the vast majority of on-screen fingerprint readers do, take a close-up photo of our finger.

Face ID, once you get used to it, is a truly wonderful technology. However, the arrival of this pandemic and the use of the mask forced us to go straight back to the iPhone 5 at the earliest, since Touch ID only arrived with the iPhone 5s. We’re talking about the old but foolproof technology of entering the passcode to unlock the device, something that frankly annoys a lot of us. As the masks gradually disappear, we can only hope that Apple finally implements a Touch ID on the screen.
