News on iPhone Fingerprint sensor being in the works surfaced online.
Apple is expected to introduce a new iPhone in September, possibly called iPhone 5S. Various sources said the tech giant will also release a cheaper iPhone version, called iPhone 5C, although all reports so far are speculative.
An ABC News report via Yahoo! News said Apple on Monday released a new beta version of iOS 7 that hints about the possible inclusion of a fingerprint reader in its upcoming smartphone.
An iOS app developer reportedly told 9to5Mac that a code found in the beta software contains a folder named “biometrickitUI” and mentions “a fingerprint that changes colour during the setup process.”
All of these surfaced a year after Apple acquired AuthenTec, a company that makes hardware security sensors, the ABC report said.
