Anyone else struggle with face recognition?

[TinaBelcher]

Don’t get me wrong I LOOOOOOOVE my iPhone X! However, the Face ID is really inconsistent on my iPhone.

Yesterday, at work it worked perfectly, and that’s with the extra security off, but now it’s mocking me.

If my mouth is covered the slightest it won’t recognize me. I have a really bad habit of resting my hand on around my mouth, biting nails, having my jacket zipped up close to my chin in the winter and in bed having my bed sheet all the way up to my neck. It’s gonna be a struggle once the snow is coming and I’m gonna start wearing scarfs. And I thought looking at it was the most important factor. I hate putting in my code, I wish apple made patterns instead.

I guess it works the best when standing up, as my job consist of me moving around?


What’s your experience? And do you also have similar habits?

Mine have worked close to perfect Tina, but I don't wear scarf though and I don't have these habits. But take this as a good sign, maybe Face ID is gonna help you move away from these habits, ha ha 🙂
I thought wearing scarf is fine though! As long as you don't cover much of your face. But I have not tried myself. Have tried different sunglasses and hats, it has worked spot on with these.

Haha you’re right. Probably a blessing in disguise
