I agree with you about Touch ID. I have been using an iPhone XR with Face ID and I miss touch ID. For one thing, I would rather lay my finger on a home button than having to hold my arm away from me with my phone. For another thing, the organization I work for has had a couple COVID outbreaks recently which caused us to need to wear masks again. It seems that COVID will be here for a long time so I’m guessing this isn’t the last time for us going back to masks. I’m considering an SE the next time I purchase a phone so I can have my touch ID back.
