Part 1: Why is My iPhone Touch ID So Slow?

1. The key finger is dry, wet, hurt or dirty

The dry, wet, hurt or dirty finger can lead the touch ID not to be recognized because the sensor chip under the touch button cannot recognize the fingerprint. Therefore, it is suggested that you should keep the fingerprint clean. In addition, you can insert one or more fingerprints to be the touch ID.

2. The home button is dirty

If your fingerprint is totally OK, you should check if the home button is dirty and use the soft towel or tissue to clean the button. Remember not to use the hard objects to wipe the button.

3. The home button is pressed improperly

Generally, you completely cover your fingerprint on the home button. If you don’t put your whole fingerprint on the home button, the phone will not be unlocked. Besides, it cannot be unlocked when you add less or too much pressure on the button.

4. The screen protector is not suitable

Many people prefer to use the screen protector. If the home button is covered with the protector, the sensor under the button will be affected and hardly used to recognize the touch ID. Therefore, you should use the screen protector carefully and avoid the button to be covered.

From the above contents, you may understand the problem “why is my iPhone touch ID so slow”. Next, we will introduce some solutions to solve the problem.
