New iPhone or iPad - can I opt to use Touch ID instead of Face ID?

Rather than using the new face ID, can I opt to use good old Touch ID on a new iPhone or iPad Pro?

iPhone XS, iOS 12.1

If you don’t use Face ID then you will use the passcode, not Touch ID

And it also is the same on the new iPad Pros ( I have the 12.9)


if if I disable Face ID I must enter passcode.
