Touch ID
A fingerprint recognition feature from Apple available on some Mac computers and some Magic Keyboard models. With Touch ID, you can unlock your Mac and some password-protected items, switch quickly between users, use Apple Pay to make purchases on the web, and purchase items from the iTunes Store, the App Store, and Apple Books.
Note: Touch ID on Magic Keyboard (available on some models) is only compatible with Mac computers with Apple silicon.
To set up Touch ID, choose Apple menu > System Settings, then click Touch ID & Password in the sidebar. (You may need to scroll down.) To use Touch ID, place your finger on it.
Thanks for your feedback.
