Developer Eric Castor, who made popular Cydia tweaks such as Lyric Flow and Mewseek has teased his upcoming tweak BioUnlock.

BioUnlock will let you unlock your Mac using your iPhone 5s Touch ID Sensor. The tweak works by using WiFi to communicate with your Mac from your iPhone. Bluetooth support is on the list of things to do, as well as Windows support.
