That’sinteresting, I’ll have to give it another go.
I still have my own eyes, but still I haven’t been able to get the attention feature to pick up my eyes looking at the screen.

Since it works for me, and is a higher security measure, then I leave it on.

No matter what I did I could not unlock the phone using face id. Turning attention needed off again and even with the lights off it unlocked my phone So a warning of types to the Blind and VI community with the iPhone x I personally find face id great but better with the attention needed feature turned off.

I kept hearing all sorts of people lamenting that the Face ID would be more cumbersome than the Touch ID. It's good to hear from a blind user as to its ease of use and setup. I realize that you're just one opinion out of many, but good to hear actual use-case experiences instead of speculation. Later...

And I’m not normally worried about these things, But after a couple hours trying it was a waste of time and effort. So turning off the attention settings which is located under settings, general and accessibility I went to face id / pin code The face ID set up is in kiwi talk, Bloody easy The phone does 2 scans of the face to get the image of the face, The phone tells you what it requires you to do or should I say VO tells you. Then after a couple of minutes of the face scanning I was able to lock my phone and then unlock it in seconds with the face id. I’m inclined to say that face id is quicker by far when unlocking your phone than touch id is / was. The face id setup is very simple and as I said easy to do. The instructions are clear from the phone and take in total less than 5 minutes in total to carry out. I did try it tonight in darkness but that so far hasn’t gone well, I ended up using my pin code as the face id didn’t unlock the device in the early darkness, Thus far I have to admit I’m really impressed by the X It’s quick and responsive to touch. The face id is quick and easier to do than the pin code and unlike the pin code with vo running can’t be heard by the people around you. I’ve just changed my pin code for the first time in 3 years as folks I work with have been hearing my pin code over the passed couple of days. Now they wont because of the face id. -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
