Face ID, Touch ID, 2FA, and checkout — verified on the secure enclave, not auto-approved

The moment money moves is the moment users judge your app. Simulators auto-approve the biometric prompt and stub the payment sheet, so the flows with the highest stakes get the least real coverage. Mobot exercises them on real hardware, end to end.

The checkout path Mobot verifies

1

Add to cart

Real taps through the real product flow.

2

Authenticate

Face ID / Touch ID on the secure enclave — simulators auto-approve and verify nothing.

3

Payment sheet

Real card, real sheet, real network round trip.

4

2FA

SMS or authenticator code received and entered on the device.

5

Confirmed

Order state, receipt, and account verified by an analyst.

Why it escapes simulators and scripts

A simulator’s biometric prompt is fiction: it auto-approves without a secure enclave. Payment sheets, 2FA codes, and third-party auth handoffs are stubbed or skipped, and a scripted framework has no way to present a real face or a real card.

How Mobot catches it

Robots drive real checkout, login, and authentication flows on real devices — Face ID and Touch ID on the secure enclave, real cards through real payment sheets, SMS and authenticator 2FA, Google and Facebook sign-in through the real OS handoff — with strategic human intervention where the OS requires a live person.

What ships broken without it

  • Face ID login that crashes intermittently on a specific device and OS
  • Card details that fail to save during checkout, blocking repeat purchases
  • 2FA codes that arrive but never auto-fill, stranding users at the gate
  • Third-party sign-in that loops back to the login screen after the handoff

Who this matters most for

Fintech, neobanks, commerce, and any regulated app where a failed login or payment is a support ticket, a chargeback, or a compliance finding.

FAQ

Biometrics & Payments: common questions

Yes. Test plans can exercise in-app purchases and checkout with real cards on real devices, against your sandbox or production endpoints as you prefer.

Biometric flows run on the real secure enclave with strategic human intervention where the OS requires a live person — the prompt, the enclave, and the app’s response are all real.

Yes. Document capture, selfie checks, and identity verification flows run on real cameras and real devices, with evidence captured for compliance review.
