Apple ditched the Touch ID feature on its smartphones back in 2017 when it introduced the iPhone X. By getting rid of the Touch ID button, the company was able to put a bigger screen on the same sized device.
Since then, the company has been focusing on Face ID. It still wanted an easier way for users to be able to unlock their phones, and its Face ID software does the trick.
However, as Apple introduced the iPhone 13 to the world, there have been rumors that the company has been working on a new way to deliver Touch ID to its users. Will the iPhone 13 be the phone that Apple finally decides to bring Touch ID back for?
