> I have to use TouchID again. Don’t set it up with a passcode in the first place?

  Unfortunately I use Advanced Data Protection on my Apple account so I kind a need that passcode. And moving to having completely different Apple account for development is PITA.

    But I think connecting a device that can be used as authentication method without choosing a defense would negate the purpose of advanced data protection of your account and other devices.

      Let's say I'm not super heavy Apple service user. For me Advanced Data Protection is defence against Apple itself and ability to keep little information I share via iCloud somewhat secret: mostly another backup of some photos and few other things. It's not like I'm trying to defend against some state actors or whatver.

        But this still weaken your defense against apple or whomever you are trying to defend against.

          Why not have the option, though?
          • elashri 2y ago
            I don't understand option to do what, you can disable advanced data protection for sure. What do you suggest here ?

            Why not disable advanced data protection, as such an option would make the device vulnerable to simple data compromises.
