Face ID for iPad Mini

I need face ID for my iPad, my old iPad (mini) is now obsolete and my phone (or anything) never recognizes my fingerprints. Because I am older, a larger iPad is more difficult, and my fingers are never recognized, which means I always have to enter a password, also difficult at times.

Again:

The current iPad Mini only offers Touch ID at this time.


Only the 11" and 12.9" iPad Pros offer Face ID.


An iPad Mini with Face ID does not exist.


You can provide the suggestion directly to Apple at: (click here)-> Feedback - iPad - Apple


If enough people request it, Apple may release an iPad Mini with Face ID in the future.
