iPhone 5S users have complained for months that the phone's fingerprint sensor tends to lose accuracy over time, and Apple has finally released an update to iOS 7 that addresses the issue.
The iOS 7.1.1 update purports to improve Touch ID's accuracy, which hopefully means making sure it doesn't forget what your fingerprints look like.
Reports of that issue began arriving last December, and Apple to this day has not tackled the problem directly.
But in February rumor had it Apple was working on a software-based solution, and this could very well be the fix that users have been waiting for.
Breaking the mold
This certainly won't address all of Apple's Touch ID problems, as there are still some handy workarounds for crafty hackers.
The rubber mold that fooled the iPhone was recently found to work equally well on Samsung's Galaxy S5 - but at least Samsung recently opened its fingerprint sensor up to third-party developers too, a step in the right direction.
Anyway, remember when you had to plug your iPhone into your computer and open iTunes just to update it? Yeah, just head to the settings menu to update to iOS 7.1.1.
iOS 7.1.1 also makes the official iOS keyboard more responsive and fixes a conflict in the software between Bluetooth keyboards and the VoiceOver user accessibility feature.
