Just FYI, Apple Pay is more secure than standard credit card transactions, and is useless if stolen, unlike cash.?

I the past, I visited the one in
the former Fruit and Vegetable market at Covent Garden in
London.
It was a VERY unpleasant experience
with loud background music and lots of unruly children.
I don't use Apple Pay - I use cash!

My iPhone XR has no home button, and no fingerprint reader. It
works on face recognition.?
Tap the screen and it lights up. At the bottom of the screen
it says to unlock, scroll up, if the facial recognition balks.
When it is being difficult or I am wearing a face mask, it
presents a numeric keypad for a 6-digit passcode.?
I assume the fingerprint recognition has the same
alternative. Borrow a friend¡¯s or stop by an Apple dealer to try
it a bit.?
If you use ApplePay, it asks for the passcode to authorize a
purchase, so it helps to keep the passcode fresh in your
memory.?

Thank you for taking the
time to respond.?
It's now working
I checked for fluff in the
charging socket with a plastic toothpick
I own my iPhone 6s; I pay
?6 a month for unlimited calls.
Having been Head of
Electronics in a school, I know that every connection
is? an opportunity for failure of an electronic system.
That's why the charging
lead in my car has a Cigar Plug on one and a lightening
plug on the other.
I know that later models do
NOT have a home button. My attempts at swiping in
various directions never have the right outcome so even
if I look for a model without an earpiece socket, I
think it would? be VERY difficult for me to manage
without a Home button

Could it have been connected and not charged last
night. Can you try charging it somewhere else? It
will take 10-20 minutes charge to show some life.?
Otherwise it may be time to replace it, or at
least the battery.?
I know you are very attached to the 3.5¡± audio
jack, but it might be time to
get a newer phone and adapter.?
On this side of the pond, many of the providers
are giving away iPhone 15s if you sign a
contract.?
