Face ID not available since update IOS 17

My Face ID stopped working since I updated my iPhone 14 to IOS 17.6.1. I have tried resetting it now it’s not giving the chance. When I go to set up Face ID then click on get started the camera comes on and the message Face ID not available try setting up Face ID later appears.

i now have to enter my password every single time my phone locks, and to open most of my apps. I didn’t realise how much time I saved with Face ID until now. This is time consuming.

Btw I have tried all the fixes on the community page, switching off my phone, shutting it down etc…


Is there anything else I can do to get back on track with my iPhone?

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 16
