In every device that you can unlock with biometrics like fingerprint or face scanner (Laptops, Tablets, Phones, etc.), they often claim entering a password is safer than using biometrics, and they block the most secure settings and information behind a passcode rather than a quick fingerprint or face scanner. Wouldn’t it be easier to steal a password than it would be to physically copy someone’s fingerprint?

I can change my passcode but how easy is it to change your fingerprint if it did get stolen?
Yes, getting the initial biometric token might be difficult depending on the technology used, but once compromised, you can’t do anything about it.
