iPhone XS Max security passcode/Face ID

Whenever I use my Face ID to unlock, I start swiping through to find an app (or something), my screen will act as if I’m typing in my passcode, sometimes even show the keyboard. I’m wondering if that’s a glitch or some kind of problems that can be fixed in respect to security.

iPhone XS Max, iOS 12

Passcode screen bug in iOs 14.1 My Xs after updating to iOs 14.1 has a bug where passcode screen shift to left side of the display due to which i cannot type the passcode. This happens only when faceId doesn't recognize as im wearing mask or when my face isnt scanned properly. I have attached the screenshot below. Apple team please fix this bug asap.

Security Lockout Even after providing the correct passcode it says "Security Lockout" (After several attempts) 1. I have the Face ID registered and was working fine, how come suddenly it stopped working? 2. Why it says that the passcode is wrong, even after providing the correct passcode?

Password required for Face ID to work glitch? This has been happening since day one, but I’ve been noticing it more now, I use an iPhone 10R. After not touching the phone for some time (2 mins - 10 hours), I have to unlock my phone with my password. I’ve read some other threads saying that it’s some interference, but this happens when my phone is laying on my desk. Since day one this has been happening, I’m very careful with my phone so there isn’t a way I’ve caused the damage. Is it iOS being secure? Hardware fault? Malware? Thanks in advance
