Face ID securely unlocks your iPhone or iPad Pro with just a quick glance. It can be used to approve purchases from the iTunes Store, App Store, and Book Store as well as Apple Pay transactions and other things. You can sign into an app using Face ID if the developer permits it.

Is Face ID safer than a password?

Although the Face ID 3D facial map capturing technique is cutting edge, a password is still safer. A cutting-edge security mechanism is face ID. It has introduced cutting-edge technology to the market, but like all newly produced technology, it has significant drawbacks. Face ID can be manipulated and even compromised which makes passwords always safer.

You must first enroll your face in order to use Face ID. You may either do this when you first set up your device or afterward by navigating to Settings > Face ID & Passcode.

Just give your device a quick glance to unlock it with Face ID. Regardless of whether your smartphone is held naturally or resting flat, Face ID demands that the True Depth camera views your face or your eyes.
