Apple’s Touch ID feature was introduced back in 2013, starting with the iPhone 5s and eventually upgraded in the form of Face ID when it debuted in the iPhone X two years ago. Even though Touch ID doesn’t exist anymore in Apple’s latest iPhone models, the solution is still being used on iPads, Macs, and iPod Touch. Over time, Face ID has become a convenient way to unlock iPhones. Does that mean the conventional way of using your fingerprint to unlock a device is on its way out? An iPhone executive doesn’t think so.

In a recent interview, Vice President of Product Marketing, Greg Joswiak said that even though Face ID will be introduced on more devices, Touch ID will not be retired. Joswiak says the solution will continue to be used on iPads, as it’s easy to use and consumers love it. Joswiak didn’t comment on the in-screen version of Touch ID that the company is rumored to be working on. It’s expected to arrive by 2021 at the latest and will provide an additional way to iPhone users to unlock their devices.
