# NoTouchID
[Lilu][1] plugin for disabling Touch ID support.
BiometricKit.framework in 10.13.4+ assumes a Touch ID sensor is present when a compatible board ID
is used, which causes lag in authentication dialogs (as well as a delayed login screen). Patching
this out resolves such hangs.
This issue appears to have been fixed on 10.15.7 and 11.0.1. This kext is unnecessary on these
versions of macOS.
### Configuration
- Add `-nobiooff` to disable NoTouchID
- Add `-nobiobeta` to enable NoTouchID on unsupported OS versions (10.13-10.15 are supported by
default)
### Downloads
Available on the [releases][2] page.
