New sign in features are being tested for Apple's iCloud, the features include Face ID as well as Touch ID. Users are able to access the new features through Apple's beta testing program. The new security features are testing different tools that may be included in the iOS 13 release, which will take place in September. Giving users the ability to sign in with Face ID and Touch ID would offer a much more streamlined, and convenient experience than manually entering information.
Users who have signed up for the beta program are able to access the new features when they access iCoud in Safari, then users will be presented with a pop up that will allow users to sing in with biometrics.
