Hi @Iso

If you are using Apple iPhone,

  1. Go to Settings > Face ID & Passcode. 
  2. Tap Set Up Face ID.

You can find the Touch ID and Face ID feature on the iPhone once you open the app.

At the bottom right hand corner "Account"  then " Settings" at the bottom you will see authentication options.

I am in a slightly different position.

I have installed the IG app on my iphone (IOS 15.2) which has face id defined but cannot use it to log in.

When I go to the Account > Settings menu, I don't see an authentication option.

Any ideas?

Cheers.

Hi @Levo,

Could you please confirm that your Face ID is activated on your phone settings ?

On the IG app if you select Account at the bottom right then Settings, then scroll down to Account settings you should be able to see the Touch ID and Face ID options to toggle on.

Feel free to reach out to helpdesk.uk@ig.com with a screenshot for further assistance.

I hope that it helps.

Hi Arvin, thanks for the prompt response.

As I said in my original post, I have it all set up and use it for Iphone system tasks and 2 other apps. All four buttons are green as per your picture too.

I deleted the IG app and download/installed it again just in case. No change.

This is the Settings screen I get688168025_Screenshot2021-12-24at10_50_04.thumb.png.671d2b7e916b94ff8e6d180cbef624cb.png

Hi @Levo,

I forwarded your query to the iOS development team directly to come back to me with a answer.

I will let you know as soon as I have an answer.

Thank you - Arvin

Hi @Levo,

On your Iphone, go to Settings  then scroll down to your apps and IG Trading.

The option to enable Face ID should be there.

I hope that it helps.

Hi Arvin,

Thanks for following up. Unfortunately something strange is going on here. I don't have the option under that menu either.

I don't have that option either. I am using the latest version of both the app and iOS.

I can use Face ID for other apps. Very odd.

Hi @Levo @andysinclair,

Happy new year!

I will forward your screenshot and feedback to the relevant department to find a solution.

Thank you - Arvin

Hi, 

can jump in and confirm that I don’t have the FaceID option at all. Similarly to the others FaceID doesn’t appear in settings for IG trading.
 

Cheers,

Plamen  

Hi @Plamen

Just to confirm did you try the following by adding Face ID authentication in your iPhone trading app by selecting ‘more’ from the menu at the bottom of the app, then ‘settings’, then by sliding the button next to ‘Face ID authentication’ to the right ?

What IOS version are you using? So I can forward your feedback to the relevant department to find a solution.

Hi. Did anyone get a response from IG as to what went wrong here?

I do not have the FaceID option within "Account Settings" in the IG Trading App. it is also not within the App settings in iOS either. my screenshots are just like the ones earlier in this thread.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling.

my app version is 10.1455.2. iOS version 17.1.2. iphone 12.

Thanks

Hi @db8000,


Thank you for your post.

Please note that you need to go to your phone Settings > Face ID & Passcode > Other Apps > Enable it for the  IG Trading App. See below

Then go to your IG app and go to Account > Settings > Face ID Authentication.

You won't be able to see this on your IG App if FaceID & Passcode is not enabled from your phone settings.

It's not working for me neither.

The app is not in  the "Other Apps" section of the Face ID settings.

Any ideas? I've already deleted and re-downloaded the app from the App Store, and still not working.

Thanks

Andy

Hi @andysinclair,

Kindly allow the IG app to use Face ID as in the below screenshot.

Hi @db8000 and @andysinclair,

I'm not sure what the issue could be, but you can find assistance on Apple support pages. Here is a helpful link: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/254763003?sortBy=best . Please check it out and let us know if it works.

Morning @KoketsoIG

I've now looked at that thread. I have the required permissions 'allowed'. FaceID works for every other app but IG Trading.

This is something peculiar to IG. Particularly as others are suffering with the same problem.

Back in 2022, @MongiIG referred it to your technical department. Was there a solution?

Same here, all other apps work fine with FaceID, only IG has an issue.

It looks to me (I'm a software developer) as if iOS is not detecting that FaceID is a capability of the IG app.

Thanks. if it helps concentrate the product team's minds - i now only use IG for long term investments as it's laborious to type in a long random-character password every time on a phone. i use a competitor for daily stuff as i can login quickly wherever i am!

The lack of FaceID does have a commercial consequence...

thanks for looking into this though.

    • AUDJPY Elliott Wave Analysis Australian Dollar / Japanese Yen (AUDJPY) Day Chart Analysis AUDJPY Elliott Wave Technical Analysis Function: Counter Trend Mode: Impulsive Structure: Orange Wave 5 Position: Navy Blue Wave 5 of C Direction Next Lower Degrees: Orange Wave 1 of New Bearish Trend Details: The analysis identifies orange wave 4 of 5 as completed, with orange wave 5 of 5 currently in play and nearing its end. The Elliott Wave analysis for the Australian Dollar / Japanese Yen (AUDJPY) daily chart indicates a counter-trend function, suggesting the market is moving in a direction opposite to the primary trend, implying a phase of correction or temporary reversal. The current market mode is impulsive, meaning the waves move strongly in the direction of the trend, comprising five waves. This indicates a strong push opposite to the main trend. The identified structure is orange wave 5, which in Elliott Wave Theory, represents the final wave of a five-wave sequence. This wave typically marks the last push in the counter-trend direction before a reversal or significant correction begins. The position within this structure is navy blue wave 5 of C, indicating the market is in the fifth wave of a larger corrective wave C. Wave C typically concludes an ABC corrective pattern, which follows a five-three-five structure. The direction for the next lower degrees is identified as orange wave 1 of a new bearish trend. This suggests that after completing the current orange wave 5, the market will start a new downward trend, beginning with orange wave 1. According to the analysis, orange wave 4 of 5 appears completed. This implies that the fourth wave in the sequence has finished, and the market is now in orange wave 5 of 5. Orange wave 5 of 5 is currently in play and is expected to end soon, signaling the conclusion of the counter-trend movement. Summary: The AUDJPY daily chart analysis shows the market in a counter-trend function with an impulsive mode. The current structure is orange wave 5, positioned as navy blue wave 5 of C. The market is anticipated to move into orange wave 1 of a new bearish trend following the completion of orange wave 5 of 5. The analysis indicates that orange wave 4 of 5 is complete, and orange wave 5 of 5 is nearing its end.   AUDJPY Elliott Wave Analysis Australian Dollar / Japanese Yen (AUDJPY) 4-Hour Chart Analysis AUDJPY Elliott Wave Technical Analysis Function: Trend Mode: Corrective Structure: Gray Wave 4 Position: Orange Wave 5 Direction Next Higher Degrees: Gray Wave 5 Details: Gray wave 3 of 5 appears completed. Gray wave 4 of 5 is in play. Wave cancel invalid level: 104.806. The Elliott Wave analysis for the Australian Dollar / Japanese Yen (AUDJPY) on the 4-hour chart identifies the market's function as trending, meaning price movements follow a discernible directional pattern. The current market mode is corrective, indicating a phase of consolidation or correction following a previous impulsive move. Corrective waves typically move against the main trend and are often more complex. The identified structure is gray wave 4, which, according to Elliott Wave Theory, represents the fourth corrective wave of a larger five-wave sequence. This wave usually moves against the established trend, indicating a period of consolidation or retracement. The position within this structure is orange wave 5, suggesting the market is preparing to enter or is already in the final wave of the larger sequence. Orange wave 5 typically follows the completion of gray wave 4, marking a final push in the main trend's direction before a larger correction or reversal. The direction for the next higher degrees is identified as gray wave 5, indicating that once gray wave 4 completes, the market will move into gray wave 5, likely an impulsive move in the primary trend's direction. According to the analysis, gray wave 3 of 5 appears completed, implying the third wave in the sequence has finished, and the market is now in gray wave 4 of 5. Gray wave 4 is a corrective phase, suggesting potential consolidation or retracement before the final wave (gray wave 5) begins. The wave cancel invalid level is set at 104.806. This level is crucial for validating the current wave structure. If the market moves below this level, the current wave count would be invalidated, necessitating a reevaluation of the wave analysis.   Technical Analyst : Malik Awais Source : Tradinglounge.com get trial here!  
    • Asian stock markets were led higher by Japanese equities, with the country's Topix benchmark rising 1%. This increase pushed the index's year-to-date gains above 20%. The surge was primarily driven by high-end manufacturing companies specialising in precision tooling and optical equipment. In Hong Kong, the Hang Seng index saw a modest increase of 0.5%. A subindex tracking mainland Chinese property developers listed in Hong Kong performed particularly well, climbing more than 3%. Candidates in the second round of French elections must decide by the end of the day whether to continue the contest, with many of those coming third likely to drop out and support candidates from rival parties in a bid to stop the Far Right from gaining a majority in the National Assembly.
