用户拒绝使用时无法检查面容 ID

Question

I want to take different actions to users if device support Face ID or Touch ID .

When using the Face ID , iOS asking permission to use. (unlike Touch ID).

And if the user denies permission, context.biometryType return LABiometryTypeNone.

Is there anyway to check Touch ID or Face ID supported by device .

LAContext *context = [[LAContext alloc] init];

NSError *error;

if ([context canEvaluatePolicy:LAPolicyDeviceOwnerAuthenticationWithBiometrics error:&error]) {

}

if (@available(iOS 11.0, *)) {
    if (context.biometryType == LABiometryTypeFaceID) {
        // support FaceID 
    }
}

// support TouchID

Console output

(lldb) po error
Error Domain=com.apple.LocalAuthentication Code=-6 "User has denied the use of biometry for this app." UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=User has denied the use of biometry for this app.}

(lldb) po context.biometryType
LABiometryTypeNone

NOTE: I Don't want to use passcode authentication. I just need to know device is support Touch ID or Face ID

Answer 1

否。如果用户拒绝的隐私权限提示与NSFaceIDUsageDescription ，所有未来实例LAContext将有biometryType财产.none一次canEvalutePolicy:error:叫他们。

Answer 2

It's too late but I hope this can help whoever have the same issue.

LAContext().canEvaluatePolicy(. deviceOwnerAuthentication , error: nil) LAContext().canEvaluatePolicy(. deviceOwnerAuthenticationWithBiometrics , error: nil)

the difference between deviceOwnerAuthentication & deviceOwnerAuthenticationWithBiometrics that the first one will tell you the device have authentication method or not .. second one have same behavior but only works is user accepted the permission.

enum BiometryResult: Int {
case faceID
case touchID
case notExist
}
class func biometryType() -> BiometryResult {
    let context = LAContext()
    if (context.canEvaluatePolicy(.deviceOwnerAuthentication, error: nil)) {
        if (context.biometryType == LABiometryType.faceID) {
            return .faceID
        } else if (context.biometryType == LABiometryType.touchID) {
            return .touchID
        } else {
            return .notExist
        }
    }
    return .notExist
}

Use property biometryType of LAContext to check and evaluate available biometric policy. (For a passcode authentication , when biometric fails, use: LAPolicyDeviceOwnerAuthentication )

Try this and see:

LAContext *laContext = [[LAContext alloc] init];

NSError *error;


// For a passcode authentication , when biometric fails, use: LAPolicyDeviceOwnerAuthentication
//if ([laContext canEvaluatePolicy: LAPolicyDeviceOwnerAuthentication error:&error]) {
if ([laContext canEvaluatePolicy: LAPolicyDeviceOwnerAuthenticationWithBiometrics error:&error]) {    
    if (error != NULL) {
        // handle error
    } else {

        if (@available(iOS 11, *)) {
            if (laContext.biometryType == LABiometryTypeFaceID) {
                //localizedReason = "Unlock using Face ID"
                NSLog(@"FaceId support");
            } else if (laContext.biometryType == LABiometryTypeTouchID) {
                //localizedReason = "Unlock using Touch ID"
                NSLog(@"TouchId support");
            } else {
                //localizedReason = "Unlock using Application Passcode"
                NSLog(@"No biometric support or Denied biometric support");
            }
        } else {
            // Fallback on earlier versions
        }


        [laContext evaluatePolicy: LAPolicyDeviceOwnerAuthenticationWithBiometrics localizedReason:@"Test Reason" reply:^(BOOL success, NSError * _Nullable error) {

            if (error != NULL) {
                // handle error
            } else if (success) {
                // handle success response
            } else {
                // handle false response
            }
        }];
    }
}
