A Reddit user claims a Touch ID tip for iPhone Duo users is arguably superior to Face ID. The strategy involves registering the lowest portion of their index finger rather than the fingertip's pad. This section naturally rests against the side button during pickup, allowing the phone to unlock as they lift it. Some users seem to concur with this approach, and the tip has been shared on the MacRumors forums, where another Duo owner confirmed it worked for them.
However, grip styles differ, and it's not guaranteed to function for everyone. Despite this, users curious about testing the tip can do so by registering additional bits of digits in Settings ➝ Touch ID & Passcode. More is often better, and those interested can attempt it for themselves.
