In Safari on iOS 14, the password and pins will be replaced by Touch ID or Face ID. It is because the Face ID or the Touch ID data don’t let anyone use your phone or see your privacy. This technology is called FIDO — Fast Identify Online which is taking place for the future without passwords.

Apple announced this authentication support in Safari on the 24th of June, 2020. The Truck ID and the Face ID both are the most secure things to protect your phone. The Apple Safari programmer, Jiewen Tan said that “During one of the WWDC video sessions Apple offered after the coronavirus pandemic pushed the conference online.”

For this new feature, the website owner needs to apply through Apple’s new Web API. This feature is currently available in the Safari 14 developer beta. Apple will let all the website developers use this feature by July this year.
