Hi there, MetaMask on mobile allows you to use biometrics for quick logins, but it may occasionally ask for your password instead. This is a security measure to ensure your account’s protection, especially after updates or prolonged periods of inactivity.

If I did not understand your feature request correctly please let me know/ go into more detail with your request, thanks ☕
