I use Face ID for all my banking apps and have done so for a year or two. Not had any problems so far. Atom seems to be the only one that has messages saying that I'm too far away, or my device is not upright but it's usually right
That's probably because Atom have rolled their own facial recognition. It is matching your image as seen through your front facing camera to the image it stored when you registered, rather than using the device's system.
In the time it takes me to line up my face in the oval frame, turn towards the window as the image is too dark, rearrange my hair, check my makeup, blink, look sideways and stick out my tongue, I can have scanned my fingerprint, checked my accounts and finished my banking.

OK, so I made up the sticking out my tongue bit.
I don't appear to have the option to choose between FaceID and Fingerprint. How do you switch between them?
