Gotta have a password for the whole phone.

All you’ve got to do is remember a code and set up Touch/ Face ID. It’s not rocket science.

You don’t. You set up the code, then use Touch/Face ID for authentication.

In this day and age, not having a passcode on your phone could lead to all of your personal information being stolen and leaked if your phone is ever stolen from you.

No. You need a passcode as a backup. Have you never tried looking at a user guide? Or are you high on something?

You’re gonna come crying back when your phone is stolen and sold as unlocked because there was no passcode. Ah well, I guess this is what I get for trying to help someone…

Yeah. You act like it can't get stolen because it's never happened. It's your phone though, so I guess enjoy it while you can.

Yes, I am. It prevents access to personal data. So you could give someone the phone, and they would need to erase it to sell it, removing your personal data.

Hey man, in this day and age…. It’s in your best interest to have a passcode on your phone.. your entire digital life could be on that device. Access to your texts, contacts, photos, files, bank accounts, utilities accounts, etc etc etc can all be compromised when you leave your device vulnerable that way. If you ever left your phone somewhere, or lost it, or got it stolen, (which happens a lot more than you think) then someone could easily clean you out of every dime in your name, have access to any of your sensitive information, and literally ruin your life. It’s 2023, definitely throw a passcode on there, it might be tedious but at least your digital life will be protected ya know? Especially considering anyone that gets your phone could empty your pockets real quick. There’s a ton of crazy and desperate people out there.. same reason scam artists exist that pray on people’s digital lives to steal their money or even identity.. not trying to lecture or anything, just trying to pass along a possible eye opener for you so you are more weary and protective over your digital life. That’s the downside to smartphones, while it’s amazing having the entire internet and a super computer in your pocket, you can lose your entire bank accounts and digital life. Back in the day someone would have to steal your computer attached to the wall and hack it to get your stuff, now it’s as simple as finding a lost phone or stealing one and people can get everything a lot more frequently than in years past. Definitely protect yourself buddy! Not worth not having a passcode in my humble opinion!
