Hi,

Are there any plans to add biometric / Face ID unlock?

Thanks and keep up the great work!

    I see the value, but I suspect this isn’t a feature Voyager needs because the only apps that have that feature are password managers, banking apps, and Telegram/Signal — that is, apps that are end-to-end encrypted and privacy-focused.

      I think the value here is to add an extra layer of disconnect between me, the person and me, the lemmy user.

      Someone can easily profile me, the lemmy user’s profile; but no one in real life needs to know me, the person, have a separate private lemmy account used for less than above the belt content. Having an extra layer of authentication doesn’t guarantee it, but makes it harder for someone to swipe my phone and poke into that.

      Yeah good point, I agree it’s more important in those types of apps, but it would be nice to have.
