[@abdullahali4117]

for android and ios messages some error will happened . try import these lines to solve it :
import 'package:local_auth_android/local_auth_android.dart';
import 'package:local_auth_ios/local_auth_ios.dart';

I looked into it and you were right i forgot to mention that i added them elsewhere. Thank you!

[@sats4544]

[@codingorbit]

@@sats4544 You should add these imports in local_auth_service.dart

As a flutter newbie - this was really great. The only issue I haven't been able to get past is for iOS. I have faceid enrolled in the simulator, I've restarted, hot reloaded, etc. I have triple checked that everything is setup per this video and the flutter local_auth docs. I continuously get an empty array for available biometrics for iOS. I spent the day scouring the web without luck. Any thoughts?

[@obong_samjoe]

thanks for the video, but after all was done, IOS was asking for the "iphone passcode" for my projcet and i did not set any. can you help out with a possible solution ?

[@andrewbarrett9927]

Make sure Face ID is enrolled

[@obong_samjoe]

@@andrewbarrett9927 it was, Hot reload fixed it. thanks

[@codingorbit]

Glad it worked eventually!

I am using both fingerprint and face id from local auth. Despite i select fingerprint to login it always prefer face id first on dialog. how to deal with it?

[@codingorbit]

I guess it checks what's default in the phone system first

[@erickcarballo1454]

I am using a mobile device, but although the cell phone has a biometric, it gives me a message:
Biometric required, go to Settings > Security to add biometric authentication.
And I already have an easy registration and I even left only that option enabled, but that message keeps appearing, does it affect the device?
My cell phone is a Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro and the local_auth version is the most recent, 2.1.6, could you help me?

[@nathantafelsky7089]

Was "" added to the AndroidManifiest.xml file between the tags?

[@addubalaji2188]

here , face id is not open in andriod devices they open only fingerprint . how to open face id in andriod devices ?

[@codingorbit]

By default the library should be able to detect both face and fingerprint but I guess its prioritizing fingerprint

[@sats4544]

for android it only allowing me to do fingerprint/pin how to do face id

[@codingorbit]

Have you activated the face id on the android phone, asking this since on ios too if face id isn’t active it asks for password
