Same behavior here.
I use TouchID to log in several times per day, and am required to enter a password "to enable TouchID" about once per week. iOS and macOS both.
This feels reasonable to me.
- ziml77 1y agoIt's annoying to ever have to enter a password manually, but it does make sense every 1 or 2 weeks to force it. Not even as a security thing but as a memory thing. It's incredible how something that you seem to know so well can get flushed from your memory after you stop recalling that knowledge regularly.
- quesera 1y agoExactly. I have enabled TouchID for a couple of banking apps, and I am dreading the likely need for the password reset dance when the time comes (it's been years). I use a password manager, but I've always kept the actually important passwords in wet memory only. When I used the web interface regularly, that was not a problem. However... :-/
