Anyone having an issue where Apps that allow FaceID logins, no longer saves login credentials? Example, Chase/Golden1/Schwab/Fidelity apps will ask for complete login info, like I just did a fresh install of the app, which I have already did and set FaceID login.

This randomly happens everyday, on ALL of my FaceID devices (iPhone 11/12/14p/16p all on latest iOS 18.1), which is annoying. My SE 2022 on iOS 18.1 with touchID does not have this issue btw.
 
Check Settings > Face ID & Passcode > Other Apps and see if those apps are set up to use Face ID. If they already are, you might need to set up Face ID again.

However, I think the real culprit (especially since the problem is on multiple devices) might be an iCloud Keychain problem. Go to Settings > [your name] > Saved to iCloud > Password and Keychain, turn off Sync This Phone, restart your phone, and then turn Keychain on again.

If you still have problems after that, you might need to delete and reinstall the apps and set up Face ID on them again. If it still lingers after that... at that point, you might need to see Apple Support. :confused:
