'Arguably Better Than Face ID': the iPhone Duo Touch ID Tip to Try

An iPhone Duo owner has shared a Touch ID tip on Reddit they claim is "arguably better than Face ID." It involves registering the lowest part of your index finger instead of the pad of your fingertip. The poster says this segment rests naturally against the side button during pickup and unlocks the phone as you lift it, and it seems at least some users agree.

The tip has since been shared on the MacRumors forums, where another Duo owner reports it working for them. That said, grip styles vary, and it's not guaranteed to work for everyone, but intrigued users can test the tip themselves by registering additional bits of digits via Settings ➝ Touch ID & Passcode. After all, more is generally better.
