How to unlock iPhone with Face ID in a mask

Recently, owners of modern iPhone models with Face ID began to face the same problem - the system face recognition does not recognize the owner of the smartphone with protective mask on the face. The reason for this is quite understandable - the system cannot accurately identify the user who has most of his face hidden. As it turned out, there is a solution to this problem. About it writes edition 9to5mac.

So that the iPhone recognizes you even while wearing a mask, need to reconfigure Face ID:

• Go to Settings → Face ID & Passcode.
• Click the Reset Face ID button.
• Select Set up Face ID and scan with the face mask folded in half with the other half of your face open.
• Complete two scans with folded mask.

After completing the setup, put on the mask and test Face ID. If the iPhone still doesn't recognize you, perform additional setup:

• Return to the Face ID & Passcode section of the settings.
• Select "Alternative Appearance".
• Scan with the mask folded in half on the other side of your face.
• Complete the authentication setup.

Then check Face ID again with the face mask. If you did everything correctly, the recognition system should recognize you.
