“…Researchers have argued that the usability of biometric systems is of paramount importance and that usability is a crucial element in users' adoption decisions [5], [6]. Despite their advantages, biometric schemes have failed to see large-scale adoption in part due to usability issues; as a result, biometrics seem to remain the "perennial technology of tomorrow" [7].…”

While biometrics have long been promoted as the future of authentication, the recent introduction of Android face unlock and iPhone fingerprint unlock are among the first large-scale deployments of biometrics for consumers. In a 10participant, within-subjects lab study and a 198-participant online survey, we investigated the usability of these schemes, along with users' experiences, attitudes, and adoption decisions. Participants in our lab study found both face unlock and fingerprint unlock easy to use in typical scenarios. The notable exception was that face unlock was completely unusable in a dark room. Most participants preferred fingerprint unlock over face unlock or a PIN. In our survey, most fingerprint unlock users perceived it as more secure and convenient than a PIN. In contrast, face unlock users had mixed experiences, and many had stopped using it. We conclude with design recommendations for biometric authentication on smartphones.

“…e usability of authentication mechanisms is one of the dominant attributes that influence users' acceptance of a particular authentication scheme [45]. e ISO standard:13407 defines usability as "the extent to which a product can be used by specified users to achieve specified goals with effectiveness, efficiency, and satisfaction, in a specified context of use" [46].…”

Smartphones are the most popular and widespread personal devices. Apart from their conventional use, that is, calling and texting, they have also been used to perform multiple security sensitive activities, such as online banking and shopping, social networking, taking pictures, and e-mailing. On a positive side, smartphones have improved the quality of life by providing multiple services that users desire, for example, anytime-anywhere computing. However, on the other side, they also pose security and privacy threats to the users' stored data. User authentication is the first line of defense to prevent unauthorized access to the smartphone. Several authentication schemes have been proposed over the years; however, their presentation might be perplexing to the new researchers to this domain, under the shade of several buzzwords, for example, active, continuous, implicit, static, and transparent, being introduced in academic papers without comprehensive description. Moreover, most of the reported authentication solutions were evaluated mainly in terms of accuracy, overlooking a very important aspect-the usability. is paper surveys various types and ways of authentication, designed and developed primarily to secure the access to smartphones and attempts to clarify correlated buzzwords, with the motivation to assist new researchers in understanding the gist behind those concepts. We also present the assessment of existing user authentication schemes exhibiting their security and usability issues.

“…According to ISO 9241-11, usability comprises three factors: effectiveness, efficiency, and satisfaction. Theofanos et al [19] argue that the user is a key component of the biometric system and evaluate usability based on this concept. Lewis et al [27] proposed the usability evaluation by dividing the components into usable elements and learnable elements.…”

Biometric devices play an integral role in consumer’s daily life, providing a seamless environment. However, it is essential to measure the usability of biometrics, owing to the elements of biometrics satisfying both usability and security. This study redefines the elements of biometrics pertaining to usability determined in previous studies and adds elements of psychological relevance, such as privacy concerns. To organize the interrelated usability structure systemically, this paper applies the DEcision MAking Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) to derive the usability structure. Thereupon, the established structure is applied in the clustered weighted Analytical Network Processes (ANP) to generate the proposed usability evaluation model. By these methods, the pertinent relationships between the factors are clarified and the weight of each element is determined. In the empirical study, 106 students measured usability of the fingerprint recognition system, iris recognition system, and facial recognition system employing our usability evaluation model. The results of this model generate the quantitative score of usability for biometric systems and suggest strategies to increase the score. The proposed usability evaluation model can comprehensively assist usability practitioners to evaluate biometric systems.
