Fingerprint Haptics Feel Broken in Beta 2

iPhone 7+ iOS 12 Beta 2


In previous versions of iOS the phone would only vibrate when an unrecognized fingerprint presses the home button to unlock the screen.


Now in Beta 2 the phone will vibrate anytime a fingerprint is detected.


Betwen success and failure it is a slightly different type of vibration, so I'm not sure if this is a bug or by design. But in either case it feels wrong, like I have made a mistake as a user.

Here's what I notice on my 7 Plus. From screen off when an unregistered finger is on the TouchID there is no haptic feedback. When the screen is on there is haptic feedback for the unregistered finger.
