Use of Biometrics in unlocking your phone

Using a face scan to unlock your phone and log in to accounts is easy to set up, but it’s not the best option for everyone. Biometric data is a fancy term for the face and fingerprint scanning that your computer, phone, or tablet uses to verify your identity. The data can unlock your device or help you log in to sensitive online accounts using a passkey. You can create a passkey on a lockable device, either with biometric data (such as a face or fingerprint scan) or a passcode, and then use it to access your online account. Remember, face and fingerprint scans can be used against you, while passwords and passcodes cannot. Are biometrics any safe for usage ?
