What’s the reasoning behind disabling biometrics?
True, but it’s also possible to lock your phone (or switch it off) so it needs a passphrase again. Using biometrics also means you’re entering your password less and so have less chance of being snooped on in public for example. And using face/touch ID makes it easier to have a longer/more secure password since you don’t need to enter it as often. There’s pros and cons to each but I choose to use biometrics
