   I'm on the Apple and Android newsgroups where I deprecate the marketing   
   gimmicks of biometrics using the derogatory term that people who live in   
   the slums are who need to protect their devices from their own family.   
      
   As such, I haven't had a password or PIN on any device unless it requires   
   it, which as far as I know, only iOS requires you to have a password to the   
   mothership account (but you don't need to protect the device itself).   
      
   Of course, I practice good computer hygiene, so I don't have anything on my   
   devices that a burglar could use against me, which means my medical and   
   financial records are in a Veracrypt encrypted volume while my passwords   
   are in KeepassXC on Windows (with compatible apps for them on Android).
