Is it possible to use the screen protector with the fingerprint feature of the 5s? Can screen protector be cut to make it work?

Definitely. The screen protector doesn't cover the Touch ID/Home button. No cutting required.

Hi there, Yes the screen protector has a cut out for the fingerprint sensor and it works well. No need to cut it.

The screen saver already has the hole cut out for the home button/fingerprint reader.

Yes! The screen protector has a hole cut for that feature as well as for the ear speaker and camera at the top. No need to cut. Hope this helps.

Yes, the fingerprint reader works just fine. There are still a lot of tiny air bubbles everywhere though, which is pretty annoying.

Yes. The CEO of tech armor gave me a sample while I was waiting in line to buy an iphone 5s Friday morning. While the fingerprint sensor is slightly recessed from the surface of the phone, and the Tech Armor glass adds a little thickness, the sensor still reads my fingerprint totally fine. The sensor only needs a partial read to unlock your phone anyway. Buy this product! It feels great.

Yes it fits an iPhone 5s but you can't use the fingerprint function of the phone.

There is a slight amount of looseness when you put a 5s in the case, so it is possible. But it would have to be a VERY thin case.

I have a 5s and the BodyGuardz works fine with it. I've had the screen protector on it for well over a year.

Not sure about iphone 5S. Using Tech Armor ballistic glass ( clear not matt ) on s Samsung GS4 and works using my gloves, the sensitivity and glass feels excellent.

No, if the protector was not on your phone you could stick your finger through it. Same applies to the speaker and power openings.

yes I did. I also recommend it. My friend and I bought iphone 5s same time. when she looked my phone, she didnt realize that there is a screen protector. It is slim and no finger prints.

I don't have a 5S, but the case is a little loose & allows the phone to slide around a bit. You'll probably have to straighten it out each time to make sure the home button/sensor it aligned with the cutout. The cutout is VERY close to the bottom edge of the home button on the 5. I don't know enough about the sensor on the 5S to know how much of your finger has to contact how much of the sensor. Could be an issue.

i have the same question. i emailed them and gt this reply... Hi Jeremy, Thanks for writing us back! As per the previous email, the iPhone 5 Commuter Series, Reflex Series, Prefix Series, and Clearly protected line, are all compatible with both the iPhone 5 as well as the iPhone 5S. The Defender Series for the iPhone 5 as well as the Armor Series for the iPhone 5, are not compatible with the iPhone 5S. However; we have released a new Defender Series line for the iPhone 5S that does accommodate for the finger print technology. You can see that here: http://www.otterbox.com/iPhone-5/5S-Defender-Series-Case/apl2-iphone-5s-set,default,pd.html?start=1&q=5s Let us know if you have any further questions! -Daniel you cant see it here, but the word " accomodate" was written in a different font...which is well, weird if you ask me.

Yes, the Tech Armor Ballistic Glass for the iPhone 5/5S/5C works with the 5S' Touch ID fingerprint sensor. We've tested this and there are no performance issues with the fingerprint sensor and our glass. Regards, Tech Armor Support

Hi PJ, the Glas.tr slim is slim enough that you do not need the jelly bean buttons to access the touch ID button on the phone. So yes you would still be able to utilize he fingerprint technology in the 5s.

You have the option of putting that part of the protector on the phone, I would say it would not because there is never a pro lemwith the capacitative touch screen. If it does mess with fingerprint scanner, it is a little circular piece that you can opt out from having on the phone.

I have a 5, not a 5s, but there is an opening in the screen protector, the home button is not covered.

i have it on my 5s and yes the fingerprint does NOT work. everything else lines up correctly. if you have a 5s otterbox has a new case coming soon that will allow the fingerprint to work. http://www.otterbox.com/Preserver-Series-for-iPhone-5S/apl20-iphone-5s,default,pd.html

I have an iPhone 5s and have used the touch screen through the case. It's not quite as accurate as using the bare phone touch screen but it's entirely useable.

I don't think so. I haven't tried it though. You will be better off buying one that's specified for the 5s
