No Password APP protection on IOS? #708

I mean cmon guys, is this a joke? 2FA without a feature to lock the screen from people? I want to use "Face ID" on my IPhone so I can unlock my phone fast, but it is high security risk because then you can just open the app and use all my 2FA tokens. How is it not obvious that people want to be able to lock it with password like every other app with sensible information? Look at Authy for example, it has 2 passwords until you get to see the tokens and you still don't have even one in 2020.

Please add it. I am not the only one. You won security battle versus Authy, but not having a password lock makes Authy better. It is ridiculously funny not having a password lock for the most sensible information inside the phone that leads to basically unlocking all of your secure accounts.

You forcing me to disable "Face ID" and using very difficult password (talking like 30 characters long) every time I want to unlock my phone, I want to protect my 2FA keys and still be able to use IPhone conveniently.

I wont believe if you say I am the only one.
