If you have an apple Watch with the latest watchOS then yes.

Otherwise you should reset faceID and set it up again. FaceID is a convenience. If it worries you turn it off or restrict it.

iPhone 11, Face ID started unlocking with face mask on About three days ago my iPhone 11 Pro Max running iOS 15.3.1 started unlocking with face ID while I am wearing a mask. Previously it required me to enter my PIN when wearing a face mask. Why is this happening and does it indicate a problem?
