Ask your Doctor:

Aside from Apple and these forums, I recommend you speak with your doctor, and see if they have any recommendations to it.


Recommend this to Apple:

Do your Part: If you thing Face ID should be a bit different for this withe Parkenson's disease, then recommend it to Apple. These are user-to-user forums. Apple rarely reads these forums on their own time as it is. So, provide Apple with feedback on this.  Apple wont get back to you directly, but the more they hear of this, the more they will know what suits their customers' needs, and what features to include in updates to come. Apple will know nothing your your ideas, if you don't provide them to Apple.

To Provide Feedback:

  1. Go Here: Feedback - iPhone - Apple
  2. Select: "Feature Request" for the "Feedback Type"
  3. Comment: that you want this to be an option, and how it can help others
  4. Proceed form there as necessary
