This is a problem with your phone, not something that Apple can wave a magic wand over 2 billion iPhones and fix. Go to Settings/Face ID & Passcode, and scroll down to ALLOW ACCESS WHEN LOCKED: Is Siri turned on? Then do the same in Settings/Siri & Search.


Is the switch stuck in OFF? If it is, then either you have device management enabled on your phone from either a business or a school, or restrictions set in Settings/Screen Time.
