I would wonder if touch ID is more secure than facial ID, in that no one could grab a phone, hold it up to someone's face and get it open. That probably is not likely to happen, but in the case of touch ID, it would not.
I currently have facial ID, but of the two, think touch is probably more secure. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Brad Snyder Sent: Tuesday, March 9, 2021 10:14 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Question About Touch ID To each his own. I’ll take FaceID over TouchID anytime, even if it means pulling down my mask, or entering my code sometimes. I hope to never again have an iPhone with TouchID. - Brad - On Mar 9, 2021, at 20:50, Julian <mrc1...@gmail.com <mailto:mrc1...@gmail.com> > wrote: Not to mention, Face ID doesn't work all that great in this time when we are all wearing masks. Yes, I know that upcoming iOS 14.5 is going to make it possible to use face ID with a mask on as long as you also have an Apple Watch on at the same time. Nice job a full year after the lockdowns began. This is why I bought an iPhone SE instead of the iPhone 12 this year specifically because I wanted the convenience of touch ID so that I can open my phone easier while being out and about as well as use Apple Pay Sent from my iPhone On Mar 9, 2021, at 6:16 PM, Christopher Chaltain <chalt...@outlook.com <mailto:chalt...@outlook.com> > wrote: I have face ID on my iPhone 11, and I’m also hoping future iPhones will have touch ID.

I doubt there will ever be another iPhone that relies solely on TouchID. FaceID is a vastly superior system. I find it interesting that individuals who have never experienced FaceID, are always asking if a future iPhone will have TouchID. - Brad - On Mar 9, 2021, at 18:21, Shirley Baker <shirleyba...@comcast.net <mailto:shirleyba...@comcast.net> > wrote: What was the reason for removing it to begin with or does anyone know?
