ios 17.2 and Touch ID?

--iphone 13 mini A2481


Touch ID is no longer in Settings on my phone, and I can find no Apple app or widget to get it back. Was this planned, or is it a bug?


FYI: the new Journal app only offers me the option to lock it with Face ID or my passcode. Feature or bug?


If technically feasible, it would be useful to have both the Face and Touch ID functions available, in some fashion.


Thanks

iPhone 7, iOS 14

Iphone 13 uses face id, not touch id, so no there is no bugs on your phone.
