Facial recognition is convenient for the user, but I would personally rather input a code. Maybe a combination of face recognition or thumbprint AND a code would be better.

I do not like the whole FaceID thing, the touchid is great, convienent.. but on the new phones its the only option... Well they may be able to lock it down purely on code, and not use the faceid at all.. but then you lose all the conviences of not needing to enter a code.

I have been an iphone owner since the 3G, but now that FaceID has replaced Touch ID... I am not sure I will buy another.

But if I do I will never configure the faceID.... ever.

Agreed. Two-factor auth is much more secure than any single auth method.

What I would like, would be for my right fingerprint to wipe the phone, my left would erase it back to factory defaults.
