    Why does Face ID no longer work 75% of the time?

    iPhone FaceID works with my mask on!

    IPhone XS Max Face ID not working

    Anyone had the same problem? There was no physical damage on the phone. Face ID just stopped working. I tried to reset the Face ID, but I can’t do that either. It says “Face ID is not available”. I also reset the phone. I don’t understand what could be wrong. I think there is something wrong...
