Do you prefer TouchID or FaceID?

What are your top two reasons?

As hesitant as I was to adopt FaceID, I've come to prefer it over TouchID... it works pretty seamlessly and allows me to use my phone when I'm out riding my bike. I always fumbled w/ TouchID when I was out riding or working out.

I still prefer Touch ID. It's a little faster (if you're used to moving your finger in place), and gives me a bit more control over when I'm authorizing things on my phone.

That said, I don't dislike Face ID, and definitely see its benefits sometimes as well.

Personally, TouchID was a very cool function when they introduced it. However, I have come to really appreciate the move to FaceID. Not having a home button is one less part on your phone that can break (I am a computer technician and repair phones as well- and the home buttons truly are a nuisance when broken because they cannot be replaced by 3rd party- only Apple). Also, I feel like FaceID is easier in the sense that there are many people who have issues getting their finger correctly on the button each time for TouchID to work (especially older gen). Pros and cons to both- but ultimately removing the home button was a genius move (in my opinion). Hope this helps!

Face ID. I can log in to bank acct and other sights just using face. No more forgetting log in info. I would never go back to touch.

I really like Face ID. I also like being able to unlock with my Apple Watch if I'm wearing a mask.
