Is your iPhone suddenly acting like it doesn't know who you are? A non-functional Face ID can be incredibly annoying. So, why is your Face ID not working? Several factors could be at play.
**Common Culprits:**
* **Obstructions:** Is something covering your face (mask, scarf, glasses)?
* **Dirty TrueDepth Camera:** A smudge or grime on the camera area can hinder recognition.
* **iOS Glitches:** Sometimes, a simple software hiccup is to blame.
* **Angle and Distance:** Ensure your face is within the correct range and angle.
**Troubleshooting Steps:**
1. **Clean the TrueDepth camera.**
2. **Restart your iPhone.** A classic fix!
3. **Update to the latest iOS.** Bug fixes often address Face ID issues.
4. **Reset Face ID:** Go to Settings > Face ID & Passcode > Reset Face ID. Then, set it up again.
If none of these work, it might be a hardware issue. Contact Apple support for further assistance. Don't give up hope – you'll be unlocking your phone with your face again soon!
