How to Configure Your iPhone or iPad with Touch ID to Open Immediately After Authenticating

By AppleVis, 14 August, 2023

In this episode, Tyler demonstrates how to configure your iPhone or iPad with Touch ID to bypass the Lock Screen and open immediately after authenticating.

By default, after authenticating with Touch ID, you should hear what sounds like a lock opening, at which point you can either press the Home button if the device has one, or slide up from the bottom if it doesn't. However, if you'd rather the device opened immediately once you placed your finger on the Touch ID sensor, you can configure it to do so by going to Settings > Accessibility > Home button, and double-tapping the "Rest finger to open" switch.
