Hello
I am using the face unlock on my iphone but today my brother has unlocked it using his face, then I rest the face id but again the same happens can anybody help me??

iPhone XS, iOS 13
Young siblings can have similar facial features so it is not unusual to have a brother or sister unlock a phone. If you don’t want him to be able to access your phone, turn off facial recognition and just use a passcode.

I don't see an easy way to change this, because clearly face-id cannot distinguish your face from your brothers. as I see it, you have 2 choices from here:
That is not possible. Face-id only scans one person at a time. Besides, the person who is having this problem already reset their face-id. and also, even if the persons brother happened to be in the photo, they would have to be standing right in front of the camera, selfie style.
If you are worried about security and do not trust technologies then please use a passcode to authenticate. Very simple.
actually I always trust technology but I wonder how to fix this problem
Does your brother know your passcode?
Was your brother present when you setup Face ID?
Were you present when your brother opened your phone?
You can't fix it.
It's very common for younger users and Face ID. Use a passcode.
No, there is nothing fake, hi conpletly look at my iphone and it opens, he doesn’t wants to annoy me we were just checking the security
You haven’t answered the questions.
sorry
no he doesnt know my password(completly sure)
yes he was standing infront of me when I set up the face id
he stands infront of me and turns the phone into his face and the phone unlocked
I am 17 and he is 13 can that be happen in this age??
Well, now you know why it unlocks using his face.
Why are you surprised when his face opens it?
Excuase me?? But I dont get the point what is the reason??
Because, your brothers face was scanned at the same time as yours when you set it up. Set it up properly next time, with no one else visible.
Quoted from the OP’s reply “he was standing infront of me when I set up the Face ID”
My brother has unlocked my iPhone using his face
