Screen Distance notifications not working on iPhone with Face ID I’ve already checked that Face ID is functioning, the Screen Distance feature is turned on in settings, and my iPhone is updated to iOS 18.2. However, I’ve never received any notifications when holding the phone closer than the recommended distance. Is there a specific condition required for it to work? [Re-Titled by Moderator]
