Before you buy
tinyTouch works with any Mac, including Mac mini and Mac Studio, which don't have Touch ID. It has two modes: HID and PIV/PAM.
HID mode
HID mode types your password after a fingerprint match. It works anywhere your password is accepted, but the password is typed into the focused field.
PIV/PAM mode
PIV/PAM mode presents tinyTouch as a USB smart card. It supports login and sudo where macOS accepts smart cards.
macOS requires a PIV PIN. tinyTouch types the dummy PIN 000000 after a fingerprint match. This PIN is not your Mac password.
Security note
In both modes, the fingerprint sensor connects to the ESP over unauthenticated UART. The sensor can be spoofed.
