Subject: Re: Face ID hit or miss
I wonder if where one is when they initially set up face ID would make a
diference? I know it is not supposed to make that much of a difference, but I
do wonder. When I get a modern phone and want to set up face ID, I will go
outside, not in direct sunlight, but using outside light. Some people seem to
have little problem using it, others just can't seem to make it work
consistently. Maybe it is like those ocr programs, that only can do as well as
the scan they are given. Maybe some who have a problem with it gave their phone
a not so good scan of their face to start with. I know voice over said it was
okay, but maybe a better scan would work better. This is just speculation on my
part, I don't have a modern phone with which to experiment.

I would say face ID works for me about 50% of the time. for reasons unclear to
me, sometimes it will just completely not recognize my face and I have to reset
it. One thing that has helped me is to also set up the alternate face ID so
that essentially, it has two copies of my face. I know people say that it
should not matter if you are in a light or dark environment, but in my very
dark bedroom, it rarely recognizes my face. it certainly has gotten a lot
better with practice, but I don’t have quite the luck that Sieghard has had,
despite setting mine up per the instructions given on this list about six
months ago.

Why don't you use Face Id, for me it works better than Touch Id ever
did, but of course that is partly because I do at time use my hands for
physical labour like woodworking, gardening and so on and whenever I put in a
day in my woodworking shop I could forget Touch Id for the next 2 or 3 days
until either the glue came off my fingers and/or all the little cuts and scraps
had heeled. Face Id is actually more secure than Touch Id and it works for me I
would say about 96 or 98% of the time. I do have th attention feature turned
off I should add, it makes it maybe slightly less secure, but both my eyes are
prosthetic and I often do not have them in at night. I have no issue with Face
I d with the attention feature enabled, but it will not work if it doesn't see
the eyes whereas it works just fine even in absolute darkness with that feature
disabled..

on my old phones with home buttons, I really enjoyed touch ID.
I don't think there is such a thing now with the newer phones that
don't have a home button. I just use a pass code. Esther

I would imagine that if this is a brand-new phone for
the first few days or
so it would asked for your password more often than
Face ID. This is so that
everything could stick to get it. However the
suggestions you receivedmake
sense. Keep us posted.

Hello,
A couple of things to try:
* Try holding it at arms-length away from your
face, straight out in front
of you.
* If you are wearing glasses, try with them off.
* If you did not register face ID that way, try registering
it again.
* Try using a microfiber cloth to wipe off the
screen. Sometimes, skin
oils can cause interference, if you hold the phone
up to your ear while on
a call.
* Note that, on device reboot, you will certainly
need to enter your pin
again.
If none of these things help, I would probably go
back to where you bought
it, or reach out to Apple, as it may be a hardware issue.

Hi all,
Subject pretty much says it all. I just bought
an iPhone 13 mini and have
set up Face ID with no difficulty; however, it
seems that it'll work two
or three times and then will require me to use
my pass code to unlock my
phone. I am getting very tempted to put my SIM card back
in my SE 20 lol.
It's much easier to just reach over and unlock
it with my finger than to
pick up my mini and hope I can get it to unlock
without having to type in
my pass code. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks for reading.
