# updateStatus(_:)

Manually updates the authorization view.

## Declaration

```swift
func updateStatus(_ inSender: Any!) -> Bool
```

## Parameters

- `inSender`: The authorization view to update.

## Discussion

Discussion Calls to updateStatus(_:) return true if in the unlocked state, false otherwise. If autoupdates have not been set, you must call updateStatus(_:) for the authorization view’s initial state to display correctly. The Security Framework calls this method for you when you change the state of the lock (by calling deauthorize(_:), for example).
