Touch ID not working on iPhone I had my iPhone SE 2020 updated last week After that the Touch button for ID does not work. I have opened everything I can think of but with the Touch ID not working you are blocked from entering many workarounds. I believe this is related to the latest iOS update as the Touch was working fine until that. Has anyone had similar experience and /or found a fix? [Edited by Moderator]
