Anybody tried to use Touch ID in development?

Hey all, Was wondering if any had successfully integrated touch ID into any of their apps that they have completed or are busy with? From the distance it doesn't look like it is difficult, but would be interested to hear from those that have bothered to read the data or try it already. Thanks Kristen

I played with one tutorial. It was really slow, like 10 seconds to verify the print. Setting up the fingerprint reader part is easy. The tougher part is setting up a pin. You have to have to have a way for the customer to use a pin to bypass the fingerprint in case it won't read for them. Apple doesn't give you access to the device pin, so your customer would have to come up with another pin for that particular app. Overall it shouldn't be to hard implement. Would make a good plugin.

Cheers, Good points, not sure it would be able to be applied as a plugin, but more a mod as in you can buy the code to implement it.
