Thanks for all the advice.  I finally called apple care and got some help.  
They suggested I try another finger, so I tried the only one I hadn’t tried 
before.  Wouldn’t you know, it worked.  It was the index finger of my right 
hand which is my Braille reading finger, so I assumed it wouldn’t work because 
there might be a callous.  It worked.  The support person said that if that 
didn’t work we could re-set the phone.  I’m glad I didn’t have to do that. All 
is well. 

Guess it’s like taking a sick child to the doctor only to find out the 
youngster has suddenly gotten well!  SMILE!

God bless!

Have you tried using another finger?

I have been having this problem with my SE now for months. One thing to check 
is that we found my screen protector had shifted and was in the way. So, we 
took care of that, and the lady at the phone store helped me redo my finger 
print which my sister said upon looking was more thorough than what I was 
getting doing it myself. I, too have redone this thing time and time again and 
hate having to put the passcode in every time or at least 95% of the time. I 
don’t know whether it is the phone or just what and am not sure what I am going 
to do about it since I do not have an Apple Store close by. If it weren’t for 
some of the apps I have, I would switch to somme other type of phone. I am 
getting really sick of this stuff not working.

 finger print no longer working

Is it not working at all, i.e. does it not even let you set it up? If so you 
may have to take the phone to an Apple Store and get them to check out the 
Touch Id home button.

Hi all. My finger print is no longer working. I’ve re-set it several times, 
turned the phone off and on and done the more complete re-set with the volume 
down and home button. Nothing seems to work. I’ve also wiped the screen and 
home button with a damp paper towel and also with a glasses polishing cloth. 
Any other suggestions? It’s a pain to enter my pass code each time I need to 
unlock the phone. Yes, I know I’m whining there a little. SMILEY. Thanks for 
any thoughts.
God bless!
