Q: Touch ID with iOS 8.0.2

I just downloaded iOS 8.0.2 and lost Touch ID functionality. Is anyone else experiencing this issue with the new update?

    same here.

     

    got my iphone 6 silver 16GB over the weekend.

    touch ID was fine out of the box with iOS 8.0

    updated to 8.0.2 and lost all functionality with touch ID

     

    the double tap on the home screen is not working as well (which lower the top screen to the bottom half....donno the name of this function)

    Exactly the same for me.  Touch ID great with 8.0, but completely lost with 8.0.2.  Have deleted all profiles and started again.  No difference.  Come on Apple - sort yourselves out!

    Same here. Touch ID did work with iOS 8.0.2 for a while, but then suddenly stopped (didn't do anything to the phone, wanted to unlock it, touch id no longer worked)
