  • Etcher version: 1.0.0
  • Operating system and architecture: macOS Sierra, 10.12.5, Macbook Pro with Touchbar

Instead of asking for the password, use TouchID for authentication (if available) when flashing an image.

Hi @tholu ,

That's a very cool suggestion! I'll forward this to sudo-prompt, the module we use to handle elevation, and once/if its implemented there, we can then enable it from our side.
