`LAContext` of `LocalAuthentication` framework has a property called `biometryType`.

Usage

This library provides just 1 method as LAContext's extension. It's biometryTypeForWorkaround(with:). It's a replacement of LAContext's biometryType property. You can use it like this:

let context = LAContext()
var error: NSError?
let canEvaluate = context.canEvaluatePolicy(
    .deviceOwnerAuthenticationWithBiometrics,
    error: &error)

let biometryType = context.biometryTypeForWorkaround(
    with: error as? LAError)

Caution

  • Don't call this method before calling canEvaluatePolicy(_:error:).

It doesn't have the default value (none).

  • This library is unnecessary if your app's deployment target is iOS 11.1 or later.

Because this library is for the bug of 11.0 and 11.0.x.

Example

To run the example project, clone the repo, and run pod install from the Example directory first.
