In the middle of several books.
I just tried to get an app from the App Store and noticed that I was not asked if I wanted to use Face ID even though it is toggled on. And even after I put in my account password after being prompted, I don't get asked if I would like to use Face ID the next time like I used to be asked. Anyone else running into this glitch on 17.2.1?

Same issue on kids iPad but with touchid. Stopped prompting to ask for touchid and now is password. Pretty annoying.

I’m wondering if Apple is changing something related to the upcoming Stolen Device Protection features.
