  • Apple's iPhone 13 might see the return of Touch ID.
  • Rather than a physical button, rumor has it that Apple's next-gen iPhone might include an in-screen fingerprint sensor.
  • If Apple does bring Touch ID back, it will exist alongside Face ID.

Apple's next-gen iPhone 13 could include an in-screen fingerprint sensor, according to a new report from Bloomberg. Nothing is set in stone at this point, but the report relays that the feature would coexist with Face ID as opposed to being a replacement for it. Apple has reportedly been developing in-screen fingerprint technology for years, so there's certainly more substance to this rumor than most.

The return of Touch ID to the iPhone would certainly be a cause to celebrate for some. While the speed and reliability of Face ID have undeniably improved over the past few years, Touch ID does offer up some benefits that Face ID can't match. Not only can the unlocking process with Touch ID begin immediately upon touching the device, but the mask-filled world we live in on account of the coronavirus has also made using Face ID a cumbersome experience.
