Hello Everyone,

As you may know, I am not yet sold on the reliability of Face ID.

A sighted friend of mine, a big, big big fan of Face ID is always telling me
how much he loves Face ID and how well it works for him; to which I always
reply, "Good for you."

Well, he recently purchased the 10 S Max along with a new garage door opener
which is supposed to be activated via Face ID, when he approaches his home.


Last night, he called me at approximately 11:30pm.  Since it was so late, I
feared that he had some kind of family emergency but no; he called
complaining that he could not get into his garage using his iPhone because
Face ID would not recognize him in the dark, in his motorcycle helmet as his
bike approached.  He said, to his dismay, even when he took his helmet off,
the phone would not recognize him in the dark.  

I could not stop laughing.  I don't know why he called me as we have not
spoken in quite some time but I suspect that he just wanted to vent to
someone who would care either one way or the other.  

What made me laugh even harder was the fact that he had been so confident in
Face ID on the new phone that he decided not to purchase a remote control
for the garage door system.

He was so angry at Face ID and the phone that he could not let it go.
(smile)

He sent me a text, today, telling me that he purchased a remote control for
the opener.

Just another great Face ID failure story, I can't get enough of them,  (Big
Smile).

Mark
