Contrary to popular wisdom, on my iPhone 13 Pro with the latest software update, my face ID will just not work in the dark. Unfortunately for me, I forgot about this when I was sitting in my very dark room this morning trying to access my bank account. Having failed to recognize my face after three attempts, the app told me that I was locked out of my Bank because I forgot my bank password, which the app would not let me store in my keychain when I first set things up. So now, I am trying to recover my account. Coming up with a new strong password and typing it in on my iPhone is difficult, as it will not let me have a computer generated password and it has a time limit on typing things in. with all the capitals and punctuation and whatever else, with trying to type fast, my first password and my confirmation password never match. then, I am kicked out of the entire system and have to start the process all over again. this is not the first time something like this has happened to me, all because it did not recognize my face in the beginning. When I went to check my credit card balance, I was a little smarter this time and actually walked downstairs and was in good light. it recognized my face in a split second and there were no problems. so now, I am spending the afternoon engaged in the convoluted and arduous process of reestablishing access to my bank account with a password change. yes, I have attention turned off in the Face ID and I reset it frequently when it actually stops recognizing my face entirely. I am about ready to just ditch face ID all together for logins. according to my cited compatriots, my face does not change overnight so as to be unrecognizable. I am perplexed that I am having such difficulty considering the fact that most other blind users are not. Touch ID always worked flawlessly for me, but I accept the fact that we will never go back to that system. it is really disheartening that I have this problem and cannot seem to find solutions. I love my iPhone and I am thankful for its accessibility to me as a blind person, but I am just hoping that I will find a solution to the face ID conundrum.
