I used to unlock my desktop with my face a long time ago (20 years or so)… No clue when it came to mobile devices, I could totally see Apple bringing that to mobile first.
I wholeheartedly agree, I thought it was cool until I realized the security concerns. FDE and pass phrases only please. If only someone could convince more companies to allow proper TOTP instead of wanting you to use their proprietary authenticator.

Yeah, the tech itself isn’t new. Fingerprint sensors also took a while to come to mobile, and they’ve been around for ages.
I’m also not interested in face unlock. Passwords work fine, and fingerprints are more than plenty for lazy people.

Yup, looking at you, Fidelity and Steam…
