I could be wrong, but doesn't a passcode actually encrypt the data (for sure on password manager/banking/etc apps) whereas FaceID/TouchID/<insert biometric here

I could be wrong, but doesn't a passcode actually encrypt the data (for sure on password manager/banking/etc apps) whereas FaceID/TouchID/<insert biometric here> doesn't? And what about hashing? AFAIK you can't really hash biometrics.

With Touch ID and Face ID, you are required to have a passcode. What's the point of Touch ID if it fails and doesn't have any other way into the phone? As for hashing biometrics, Apple has the Secure Enclave which is for storing the biometrics.
