Yes. You need to input a Passcode to change your Face ID.

Frequent passcode requirement Why does my iPhone frequently require me to enter my passcode even if I have Face ID? Often times it’s multiple times a day.

Frequent Face ID passcode prompts on iPhone It won’t do any good to talk about this because I’ve just read through hundreds of other user complaints. I just started using FaceID and all day long my phone asks me to enter a passcode. I like that my Mac asks for my fingerprint to unlock the screen, open apps and autofill passwords, and it works every time. Imagine that. [Edited by Moderator]
