Good Evening:

The recent Face ID hit or miss thread caught my interest since, like the original poster, I have an iPhone SE 2020 and like Touch ID.

The SE2020 is my first smart phone and is my back up with my land line being my primary phone. I have the cell powered off most of the time and might power it on for texting or to check the weather app etc. I have Apple ID, Touch ID, and Pass Code set up and have purchased an app on the App Store. The way things are set up, I have to type in my pass code when I power up. I can usually do it correctly the first or second time so typing it isn't the problem; I'd prefer to use Touch Id instead if possible. I am not in a work or school situation and my house does not resemble Grand Central Station and I do not have a lot of personal information on the cell.

The original post did say locked and not powered off. When I first got the cell and was trying to follow along with a tutorial, the phone kept saying locked what sounded every 30 seconds and locked became a "dirty" word and I never investigated what it was good for. I turned lock to never. I'm using the phone a little more now and would be willing to change that if someone could explain why it would be good when I use the phone so little. I'd greatly appreciate knowing if I can keep the pass code for when I needed it for other things and could use Touch ID when powering on.
 Thanks,

Margaret

Hi all,
Subject pretty much says it all. I just bought an iPhone 13 mini and have set up Face ID with no difficulty; however, it seems that it'll work two or three times and then will require me to use my pass code to unlock my phone. I am getting very tempted to put my SIM card back in my SE 20 lol. It's much easier to just reach over and unlock it with my finger than to pick up my mini and hope I can get it to unlock without having to type in my pass code. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks for reading.
