FaceID/Touch ID Application Lock

[blaine07]

I am not sure if this has been discussed but I really wish Apple would allow apps to be locked requiring FaceID or Touch ID on a per app basis at a system level(ie app developer have to do nothing on their end OR app devs could turn it on for banks etc and FORCE it to be used for their app). I feel like all the hardware and tech is their. Is their any particularly difficult road block standing in the way I’m missing here?

That would be a nice feature.
Maybe it’ll be introduced in a future iOS update.

I use Touch ID on many of my apps. 1Password, Box, my bank app, PayPal, Humana, Verizon, and others. It would be nice if it were system wide. But I think it really has to be implemented by the devs. Apple might could require it of the devs, but I don't see that happening.

I don’t really see why Apple couldn’t make it a system preference. I’m not entirely sure why they would, or wouldn’t, for that matter.

People would then say that Apple copied Android.
