Abstract:
The present disclosure relates generally to implementing biometric authentication, including providing user interfaces for: while the electronic device is in a first state in which a respective function of the electronic device is disabled, detecting one or more activations of the button; and in response to detecting the one or more activations of the button: capturing, with the one or more biometric sensors that are separate from the button, biometric data; if the biometric data satisfies biometric authentication criteria, transitioning the electronic device to a second state in which the respective function of the electronic device is enabled; and if the biometric data does not satisfy the biometric authentication criteria, maintaining the electronic device in the first state and displaying, on the display, an indication that biometric authentication has failed.
