Hey

So Face ID is not working as seemless as I'd like. I typically have to raise the phone closer to my face to get to unlock. Things Ive tried so far:

  • reset face id
  • turned off attention awareness

Im still looking silly wide eyed staring and raising this phone to my face lol. Any help?
 
Have you tried resetting your device?

What about

What about trying to re-calibrate FaceID by setting it up again with your face really close to the screen during setup process? Maybe that'll give it a bit more, better data to work with. Or if that doesn't change things, maybe try setting it up again with your face quite far from the sensor.
