since the launch of the iPhone 10 there
have been many people disappointed with
the speed of face ID versus touch ID and
it's true touch ID is faster but it
doesn't have to be much faster
the reason face ID is slow for some
people is because they're waiting for
the unlock icon to pop up before they
swipe to unlock but I've been messing
with the iPhone 10 for quite some time
and I've noticed that you actually don't
have to wait at all before swiping up
the reason there's a little bit of lag
time with face ID is because the true
depth system has to first project
infrared dots on your face and then scan
those dots before authentication can
begin on the other hand touch ID only
has one step
it just has to scan your fingerprint
which doesn't have as many variables as
your face does for scanning and if you
enable rest to open within the settings
it becomes extremely fast since you only
have to tap the home button once and
hold to unlock even though face ID may
be slower we might as well try our best
to make it as quick as possible let's
get started
first of all the race to wake and tapped
awake features are enabled by default so
make sure those are on a good habit to
make to increase the speed of face ID is
to always have your thumb or finger
hovering over the bottom of the screen
so that way it's always ready to swipe
tap to wake seems to work the fastest so
let's start with that there's a couple
of things you can practice to speed up
the process first you should find the
lowest spot on the screen that
consistently wakes your device then
practice swiping to find the most
comfortable starting point of the swipe
where it's also consistent the distance
of your swipe can actually be pretty
short so practice making the swipe
shorter as well and finally practice
tapping and swiping as fast as you
possibly can completely ignoring whether
the screen is turned on yet then slow
down the process until your iPhone 10
consistently unlocks we've actually
found that the device can still unlock
even if you start the swipe before the
screen turned on so keep that in mind
now using race to wake you eliminate the
need to tap but the angle at which the
screen wakes changes with how fast you
raise the iPhone 10 but after some
practice you can really get the hang of
it and soon enough you'll also be able
to swipe before the screen wakes just
remember to always hover your thumb over
the bottom of the screen while raising
it of course there's the side button but
it's not as quick if you're holding your
phone with one hand you can definitely
try bringing your thumb down a swipe as
fast as you can but it's not as
comfortable and harder to get consistent
using two hands however is definitely
pretty quick remember that practice
makes perfect
