Unable to get into my phone because it does not recognize my face. I did nothing to this freaking phone and it’s not even allowing me to turn the photo ID off

Use your passcode instead.
If Face ID does not recognize your face, your iPhone will prompt you to enter your passcode instead. Typically, after two failed Face ID attempts, the passcode entry screen appears automatically. However, there are several situations where Face ID may not even attempt to authenticate and will require a passcode immediately.
These include:
If Face ID continues to fail, you can swipe up from the bottom of the screen and tap "Use Passcode" to unlock your iPhone manually.
I just keep tapping the screen and hold the phone away from my face or cover the front camera. To stop it trying to read my face.
Thank you!
yeah it's really drawn out. In a situation where you can't look straight at the phone and you want to immediately use the passcode. All that can get really frustrating.
Especially when screen manipulation starts because apple wants you to install more updates and use it as a camera more often and use more of your cloud space with backups. So you end up subscribing to more. iPhone ios is bad for screen manipulation implementation.
Apple likes people using the camera because it's free marketing for apple. Show everyone you have an iphone and you think it's camera is great lol. As a photographer i know that phone cameras are $h!t
How do I bypass Face ID on iPhone when it fails to recognize face?
