I intentionally to this day use a passcode still. I am not a fan of Face ID and wish they would have an in-button TouchID system, like with the latest iPad Mini. That is all.

TouchID was the bomb when I have it. The thing I don’t like about FaceID is it’s almost impossible to use in some situations.

In all fairness TouchID doesn’t work in some situations either - like gloves or wet hands

Yeah both have their pros and cons. Like I would have loved to have touchID during Covid when mask use was a necessity or at night when the room is dark. FaceID is useful when you can’t use your hands. I wonder if VoiceID could be a thing. Feels like I’d solve both of those.

With deepfakes, I would worry about voice ID

Could be nice to have both TouchID & FaceID so you could use whichever is convenient at the time

I mean people have already been able to trick iPhone cameras to unlock FaceID. And if they wanted to deepfake my voice, they’d have to find recordings of me(which are probably less common than pictures of me). I don’t have an active social media presence.

God I wish they stopped being so stubborn about it and just brought back Touch ID. This is literally the only reason I keep using my iPhone 8 Plus.

I refuse to be made to pose to unlock my phone, it’s so dumb how easy and quick it is to unlock my phone as I’m taking it out of my pocket, as opposed to taking it out and looking at it.

The worst part is that I’m sure they could have made the power button be the fingerprint sensor. We could have both Touch ID and Face ID on current phones if only they weren’t so stubborn about it.

Yea lock button fingerprint sensors are the best imo. As cool as under display fingerprint sensors are, they are not worth the effort.

The lock button fingerprint sensor of my S10e was lightning fast and conventiently placed. I loved it.

Same as fingerprint sensors on the back of the phone. Had a few friends that had those. Also really good.

The ones under the display so far were not really great...

The button sensor was fast and reliable. You could also use it discretely, under a table or in your lap during meetings, while FaceID it's trickier.
