You can leave the attention aware setting turned on for face ID and then you won't need to worry about the situation you describe below where someone may wave your phone in front of your face without you knowing about it. With this setting enabled, I'm pretty sure face ID is more secure then touch ID.

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?
