Opinion: The three things I think Apple needs to do to unlock the full potential of Touch ID<div class="feat-image">

<p>But exactly the same issue exists with Touch ID, and that’s something I
do think is a big deal.</p>
<p>Passwords are horrible. They were fine way back in the days when we only needed a handful of them, but these days you need a password to do everything from transferring photos from a camera to an iPad through to ordering a pizza. We probably each have hundreds of the darned things.</p>
<p>And passwords are
especially horrible on iOS devices – where we have to switch an on-screen keyboard between letters, numbers and symbols multiple times to type a single password. That’s a problem that ought to have been almost completely solved by Touch ID – yet that’s not the case …</p>
