As the iPhone XR has Face ID , there is no hardware to support fingerprint ID. Fingerprint ID can not be installed on that device.

Touch ID App:

Touch ID is a feature of the iOS; it is not an app. So, see if you can use the following, in the order provided.

  1. Set Up Touch ID on iPhone - Apple Support
  2. Use Touch ID on iPhone and iPad - Apple Support
  3. If Touch ID isn't Working on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
