Biometric Gates at Heathrow

Is it easy to be able to processed (when returning to the UK) using the biometric gates? I am a non EU national and my visa status is pre-settled status. As I am applying for settled status, my pre-settled status biometric residence card is with home office. I have put in a request for them to send it back asap (due to family reasons) but they have no timescales.
I don't generally need to show any visas when returning to the UK as citizens from my country are able to use the biometric gates. I remember using them last year (during the pandemic) when returning to the UK. But I don't know if anything has changed recently.
