On iPhones without a Home button, Face ID replaced Touch ID as a form of biometric security. Face ID first appeared in iPads with the third-generation iPad Pro in 2018. Your Face ID information is <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/support.apple.com\/en-us\/HT208108\">stored<\/a> encrypted on your device and is <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.apple.com\/legal\/privacy\/data\/en\/face-id\/\">not accessible<\/a> by Apple or any other company.<\/p>\n<p>Face ID is handy because it eliminates the need to tap in a passcode to unlock your device, and in many cases, also eliminates the need to enter passwords using the on-screen keyboard. Instead, your iPhone or iPad allows you to prove your identity just by looking at your device.<\/p>\n<p>To set up Face ID, visit Settings and tap \u201cFace ID &amp; Passcode,\u201d then select \u201cSet Up Face ID.\u201d Your iPhone or iPad will learn the shape of your face, and you\u2019ll be able to use it to unlock your device and authorize purchases and logins later.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>How to Add Additional Touch ID Fingerprints to iPhone or iPad<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Does_Face_ID_Work\"><\/span>How Does Face ID Work?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Face ID uses a special module that <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.computerworld.com\/article\/3235140\/apples-face-id-the-iphone-xs-facial-recognition-tech-explained.html\">projects<\/a> over 30,000 points of infrared light onto your face, which are invisible to the human eye.

The next time you log in with Face ID, your device compares the scan of your face with this stored pattern, and if it matches, your device will unlock.<\/p>\n<p>If the person holding the iPhone or iPad doesn\u2019t match the Face ID data, your device will not unlock.

With part of your face obscured by a mask, Face ID traditionally cannot verify your identity.<\/p>\n<p>However, in 2022 with the iOS 15.4 update, owners of the iPhone 12, 13, or higher can use Face ID with a mask if they turn on \u201cFace ID with a Mask\u201d in Settings &gt; Face ID &amp; Passcode. Instead of recognizing your entire face, it focuses on the area around your eyes.
