IPadpro works with face recognition does this mean finger touch id is not possible?

IPadpro works only with face recognition? Not with finger touch ID?

The TouchID sensor is incorporated within the physical Home Key - or for iPad Air4, the sensor is incorporated within the “Top” (Sleep/Wake) button.


iPad Pro and many models of iPhone instead use FaceID - that uses a sensor that uses the front camera and IR dot-illuminator. These models do no include a TouchID sensor.


All current models of Pad and iPhone use either TouchID or FaceID - not both.
