Can you get Touch ID on iPhone 11?

Published in iPhone Features 1 min read

No, the iPhone 11 does not have Touch ID.

The iPhone 11, like all iPhones model X and later, relies solely on Face ID for biometric authentication. According to our reference, all iPhones without a physical home button (model X or later) do not have fingerprint recognition. They exclusively use facial recognition.

Here's a breakdown:

Feature iPhone 11 iPhones with Touch ID (older models)
Biometric Authentication Face ID Touch ID
Home Button No Yes
Fingerprint Sensor No Yes
Release Date 2019 Varies
  • Face ID: Uses a 3D scan of your face to unlock the phone and authenticate payments.
  • Touch ID: Uses a fingerprint sensor (integrated into the home button on older models) to unlock the phone and authenticate payments.

Therefore, if you're looking for Touch ID, you would need to consider an older iPhone model that features the physical home button. The iPhone 11 and all models released after the iPhone X do not include Touch ID.
