It's seasonal for me.

Spring and summer, TouchID works flawlessly. Once the air gets dry in the fall and my skin starts to get gross, TouchID struggles. But I guess that's to be expected.

For me it was the opposite - I think it was the humidity in the summer that messed with TouchID

I find that the slightest modicum of oil on my skin is enough to stump my sensor.
