Touch ID

I clicked “never” to use Touch ID on an app I now frequently use. Is there a way to change this selection and begin using Touch ID for the app?

My thought would be to look in the settings for that app and see if there’s a way to turn it on.


Or if it’s an app where you won’t lose any data, delete app and redownload it to set it back up again. So say it’s a banking app or the such where you won’t lose any data then deleting and reinstalling should be relatively painless.


If it’s a game or something then you may lose your progress.
