Hello @geezjan and @densign! 👋

Thank you for reporting the issue! Our developers hope to get their hands on a Magic Keyboard soon in order to test and investigate this issue. Until recently the only way to obtain a Magic Keyboard was by buying one of the new M1 Macs. You should still be able to use Touch ID on the keyboard if the Macbook Air's lid is kept open but, while I can't make any promises, I can certainly agree that it would be great to also be able to use Touch ID on the keyboard when it's in "clamshell" mode.

I've forwarded your reports to our development team. :)
