Touch ID

Use your fingerprint to add another layer of security to your app.

Touch ID provides a 2nd layer of security / protection for your apps. It relies on fingerprint recognition technology embedded in your phone’s home button to identity you as the owner of the device and granting access to apps like GSDfaster. Otherwise if Touch ID can’t recognize you then app access is denied. Simple right?
