How Do I Enable Biometric Authentication?

You can enable Face ID or Touch ID for faster, more secure access to your account—either during setup or later in your device settings.

Biometric authentication (such as Face ID or Touch ID) is an optional feature that adds an extra layer of security to your Yeeld account, while also making it quicker to log in.


Why enable biometric authentication?

  • Enhanced security
    Adds another layer of protection alongside your password and passcode
  • Faster access
    Log in to your account quickly using your face or fingerprint
  • Convenience
    No need to manually enter your passcode every time

How to set it up

You can enable biometric authentication in two ways:

During sign-up

  • After creating your passcode, you’ll be given the option to
    “Enable Face ID / Touch ID”
  • Simply select this and follow the prompts on your device

After sign-up (anytime)

  • Go to your device settings
  • Enable Face ID or Touch ID for the Yeeld app
  • Open the app and confirm when prompted

Your device will guide you through the setup process based on whether you’re using facial recognition or fingerprint authentication.


Important to know

  • Biometric authentication is optional
  • You can continue using:
    • Your passcode to access the app
    • One-time passcodes (OTPs) for sensitive actions
  • You can enable or disable biometrics at any time in your device settings

Why this matters

Using biometric authentication helps:

  • Reduce the risk of unauthorised access
  • Keep your account secure without adding friction
  • Complement Yeeld’s existing security measures, including secure login and verification processes

It’s a simple way to make your account both safer and easier to use.
