how to disable face id on 11

i had a 11 pro and exchanged for an 11 because of severe eye strain. I've tested repeatedly with different phone settings. Now i'm absolutely sure it is the face id causing my problems. Is there a way to completely disable face id?

Check your Face ID settings

To check your Face ID settings, go to Settings > Face ID & Passcode. Turn Off all Four

  1. iPhone Unlock
  2. iTunes and App Store
  3. Apple Pay
  4. Password Fill


Scroll down and tap Reset Face ID. You'll find this red-text option in the middle of the page. Tapping it will delete your Face ID, DO Not setup a new one thus ensuring that you'll use your passcode to unlock your iPhone from now on
