Add Face ID or Touch ID in a snap with Onymos Biometrics. Easily adapt to the supported technologies of a particular device and platform.
Add additional biometric authentication capabilities supported by the devices your customers use.
The Biometrics Feature automatically uses the appropriate biometric authentication capability available in a user’s device. No special coding required for Touch ID versus Face ID versus basic device credential.
Prior to actual invocation, Biometrics determines whether the device supports biometric authentication, what biometric authentication type (Touch ID or Face ID) the device supports, and whether the app has the permissions to execute it.
Onymos Biometrics can be used as the primary mechanism to authenticate into your app. After an initial authentication using a different access mechanism (say social login, email/password, or OAuth-based service) your user can be prompted to set up a biometric mechanism. After such a biometric setup, subsequent authentications can be done just with biometrics, reducing authentication friction and increasing authentication speed.
Onymos Biometrics can be used as a mechanism to authorize your user to specific sections of the app or functions within an app. When your user requires authorization to a specific section of the app or a specific function (say purchase page or make a purchase) the user can be challenged with biometrics and prompted to provide authorization.
The simplest, fastest way to add user Biometrics authentication and authorization to your app.
Front-end configuration via standard HTML/CSS ensures the Biometrics Feature fits seamlessly into your existing project.
Unlike plugins or code snippets, each Onymos Feature is full stack, from the user interface to the cloud layer.
Onymos supports the Feature at every stage. Updates are as simple as rebuilding with our newest object release.
