• Can't enable "Find My" app to have "Require Face ID" in my iPhone?

    From Ant@21:1/5 to All on Sat Mar 1 19:49:57 2025
    I can't enable "Find My" app to have "Require Face ID" in my iPhone 12 mini (iOS v18.3.1). Can yours?

    Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)

    I don't understand what you're asking for.

    What are you trying to do that you cannot do?

    Describe the steps.

    Bingo.

    Why, you are already using Face ID to unlock your phone. I don't understand
    why you would want to require the same to just open the app.

    Bingo.

    Given your iPhone is password-protected it would be a redundant
    function. iPhones are personal devices and are not intended to be used
    by several users.

    Why, you are already using Face ID to unlock your phone. I don't understand >> why you would want to require the same to just open the app.

    Added security in case of theft and the thief has managed to shoulder-surf your screen lock PIN.

    iOS 18.2 (or .3) added the functionality that you can add FaceID to any
    app.

    I don't think you can on Find My. I have the latest update and I don't see
    it. Still seems really redundant to me anyway.

    And if Face ID fails twice, it falls back to your PIN, so that's not
    going to make a difference.

    Because sometimes someone else is using my iPhone. I don't want them to be using that app.

    Not any app. Almost all apps. I was told that Apple's native iOS apps can't be Face ID protected. :(

    They will find out they are being tracked without their permission.


    Lay out that scenario, please.

    Who is "they"; the person who owns the phone, the person who is lent the
    phone.

    Lay it out from end to end.

    He said he doesn’t want anyone who uses his phone to see the app. It’s not
    hard to connect the dots.


    And yet when asked to do so, you could not.

    Why don't you make a guess? We know Ant will never respond to the

    Why don't you explain what you actually meant when YOU said:

    I already did. It's pure logic. Try using it occasionally.

    No, you most certainly did not, qui...

    ...wait! "Quisling" isn't quite right for you.
