FaceVault App

Said about iPhone FaceVault

The iPhone FaceVault app is a version of Android’s Ice Cream Sandwich feature called Face Unlock.

”FaceVault’s user interface is easy to navigate, proving it is worth using to protect your device. In case you’re in low-light places, it has the contingency method onto pattern recognition, and the ability to create unlimited albums with photos you can import from your device’s Camera Roll.” / Maria Capati, Simonblog

”The app description does include a caution that somebody who looks similar to you may be able to unlock the app but we imagine there will be plenty of iOS device owners wanting to try out this new app.” / phonesreview.co.uk

”The user interface of the app looks extremely native and is very easy to navigate, proving to be extremely intuitive and friendly.” / Redmondpie.com

”The application works in quite a simple manner.” / 

”FaceVault is powered by Face.com’s engine though, and will need an online connection to grant you permission from their servers. The need for a data connection would also prove to be a downside, since it could take some time to get permission. On the plus side, it also has a feature that takes and stores a photo of failed log in attempts, which will let you check out who’s been messing with your phone.” / Techrockstar.com

IN SWEDISH. FaceVault App är Apples ansiktsigenkänningsmjukvara för iPhone. Androids version heter Face Lock och precis som FaceVault skyddar apparna din telefon från obehöriga personer. Tekniken är dock inte perfekt, inte på långa vägar, skriver Wired. I 60% av inloggningsförsöken med FaceVault funkade ansiktsigenkänningen och telefonlåset öppnades. I övriga 40% krävs att man istället loggar in med en mönsterbaserad kod. Men det värsta var att FaceVault ibland låter ej auktoriserade ansikten öppna låset. Det här måste förbättras till nästa uppdatering. /Stig Björne
