That wouldn't work on desktop computers, especially if you don't have an iPhone. Another stupid and unnecessary decision from Apple. How am I going to set my desktop Mac to start up automatically each morning, and log me in automatically? How am I going to let someone else log in (as I occasionally do) when I'm not there - someone who doesn't have a smartphone and who really, really, needs to access my computer, urgently? How am I going to log in when I'm on a plane on a long flight? Is there anyone left at Apple who has a brain?

Finally! I imagine Tom's issues would be solved by entering a passcode as you do on an iphone today when your face or thumb is unavailable. | | | Lingua 5B Bosnia and Herzegovina Local time: 23:58 Member (2009) English to Croatian + ...
They are annoying with their endless passwords requests and have cumbersome processes in case you forgot your pass ID. I would like for that to happen. | |

I don't know about Apple products, but on my laptop I have two sessions: a password-protected one for me, with my work and all my admin documents and whatever, and a "guest" session for anyone else, that they can use without a password. I don't think anyone has ever needed access to my session. I suppose the day I die someone might need to. | | | Tom in London United Kingdom Local time: 22:58 Member (2008) Italian to English

[Edited at 2022-06-13 11:55 GMT] The same four-digit passcode I enter every time I open my phone with cold hands, like a PIN. Not an irritating one-off texted job like from the Revenue. I really don't think Apple are that stupid anyway. I love fingerprint technology - ApplePay etc. It'll also make it easier to start up our DeepL accounts so we won't need to work anyway. If indeed we have any in the future.
