    The following link has instructions: Use Touch ID on iPhone and iPad - Apple Support

     

    Note however that it doesn't completely eliminate use of a passcode. See the quote below from the above link:

    Sometimes, you'll need to enter your passcode or Apple ID instead of using Touch ID:

    • If you've just restarted your device
    • If your fingerprint isn't recognized five times in a row
    • If you haven't unlocked your device in more than 48 hours

    • If you've just enrolled or deleted fingerprints
    • If you're trying to open Touch ID & Passcode in the Settings menu
    • If Require Password is set to Immediately under Settings > General > Restrictions
