Can an iPhone 6s have more than one user?

Can an iPhone 6s have more than one user? Thinking of buying one new 6s for two of us to use. Will the phone accept two fingerprints? Or is there a password override to using the fingerprint ID?

iPhone 6s, iOS 9.1

It is a single user device. It will accept multiple fingerprints from more than one user but this will not create a separate login. If you don't mind sharing all of your messages, emails, etc. then you could share it.

The iPhone will accept several fingerprints and no they do not need to belong to the same hand. You just need to setup the different fingerprints. Using fingerprint access requires the usage of a passcode as well. The Passcode can be used to bypass the fingerprint access as well.


The iPhone will not have different user accounts though. So everything will be shared. This includes contacts, email, calendar, apps, files etc..

In all honesty, iPhones are not designed to be shared though.
