Face or Fingerprint Log In

Users may now log into SMC without entering a password by using face or fingerprint identification stored on their mobile device. iOS (Apple) users may log in using Face ID or Touch ID, depending on their mobile device. Android users can log in using their device's fingerprint scanner.

To use this functionality, face or fingerprint identification must be enabled on the settings screen of the user's mobile device. When SMC detects face or fingerprint identification on the user's mobile device, a prompt to enable Face ID (iOS), Touch ID (iOS), or Fingerprint (Android) for SMC is shown after logging into the app with a password.

After enabling this feature, users may log in by scanning either their face or fingerprint, depending on their mobile device (check the device's settings). This functionality is enabled by default and can be disabled or enabled on the SMC settings screen. When logging in using face or fingerprint, normal rules for password reset and expiration are still applied. When a users password expires and they log in using face or fingerprint, they are immediately prompted to reset their password.

7. Check your device and make sure face or fingerprint ID is enabled in the device settings.

D. Apple (iOS) Face ID

E. Apple (iOS)- Touch ID

F. Samsung (Android) Fingerprint ID

8. Log In to SMC

9. After logging into SMC, tap YES.

This pop up is displayed the first time a user logs in after storing biometric data on the device being used. The text of this pop-up changes based on device and whether face or fingerprint data is detected by SMC.

Security Setup (Initial Log-In)

For initial log-in, users must answer a series of security questions. Security questions are skipped on subsequent log-ins. Users must keep the answers to these questions, as they are required to complete the reset password process.

The number of security questions is based on the agency/payer configuration. Each security question must have a unique answer.

11. Tap NEXT.

Accounts can be configured so that passwords expire after 60 days (default) and must be reset. A warning message displays 10 days (default) prior to a password’s expiration date indicating the number of remaining days before the user’s password expires. After a password expires, the user must follow the reset password process. The length of time that can elapse before a password expires and how far in advance the warning message displays is configurable based on agency/payer configuration.
