Face ID problem after update iOS 14.3

No you don't see "1K"s of users with the same issue; most have no issue at all.

If following these instructions does not restore operation:

as we are just users here, and Apple does not read or respond to product development questions on this forum, your best bet is to contact Apple Support directly:

I found this link (below) for the same problem with an earlier update - I believe it was with the 14.1 install. Hundreds of people posted about it. The video walks you through some testing of your true depth camera to isolate THAT as either the potential problem, or if everything checks out, seems to suggest it is a problem with the software. I believe it's with THE SOFTWARE. My face ID was perfectly fine just before I upgraded to 14.3 a couple of days ago. Hope this helps and that APPLE fixes this ASAP!!!

I’ve also had Face ID issues with certain apps since the 14.3 download. Also had to reset my phone settings as my screen went black (like dark mode but was not in dark mode). This has got to be the worst update I’ve ever had on one of my iPhones.
