Skip typing passwords and access your smart home faster. The latest eWeLink app update (version 5.20) introduces a seamless and secure way for iOS users to access their smart home ecosystem: Face ID Login.
This highly anticipated feature is all about convenience and security. By leveraging the advanced facial recognition technology built into your iPhone, eWeLink eliminates the need to type passwords, making your login experience almost instantaneous.
How to Get Started in a Few Taps
Setting up Face ID login is straightforward:
- Open the eWeLink app and navigate to Profile > Settings > Face ID Login.
- If you haven’t already set up Face ID on your device, the app will gently prompt you to configure it in your iOS settings first.
- Once enabled, you’re all set for a faster future.
From now on, whenever you log out or your session times out, gaining access to your eWeLink app is as simple as giving your device a quick glance. It’s a natural, fluid motion that gets you right back to controlling your devices.
A Day in the Life with Face ID Login
Imagine these scenarios:
- Quick Check-In: You’re at the office and want to make sure you turned off the living room lights. You open the eWeLink app, glance at your phone, and you’re instantly in—no typing required while holding your coffee.
- Secure and Speedy Access: After your app automatically logs you out for security, you don’t need to recall your password. A simple look re-authenticates you, keeping your account secure without any hassle.
Important Note for a Smooth Experience
It’s helpful to remember that the Face ID setting is linked to one specific eWeLink account per device. This means if you switch to a different eWeLink account on the same phone or if you reinstall the app, you will need to visit the settings again to re-enable Face ID login for your account.
The introduction of Face ID login in the eWeLink app V5.20 is more than just a minor update—it’s a significant step towards a more intuitive and effortless smart home management experience. It understands the need for both robust security and everyday convenience, allowing you to focus on what matters: enjoying a connected home that works for you.
