OK, this one’s a little strange so bear with me. A new app called BIO.ID uses a retinam voice recognition, finger-print sensor to secure the data on your phone. At last – a program which will no doubt interest the hundreds of Government workers leaving sensitive data in pubs and trains across the land. Ah.. but wait, it’s all a bit of a fake.
When a new text arrives this will take over and display a user identification gateway with several scanners to test your identity. Whilst it’s not actually doing any recognition it’ll at least fool your mates.
