Face ID and Passcode Missing in Settings

Mine still didn't show up after following these directions.....AND I reset it for good measure :(..... anyone else?

Thank you so much this really helped.

I hadn’t needed to update my Face ID until now due to me having on blue light glasses. And i must have changed the settings at some point in time.

(obviously lol). And thought I was going crazy because i wasn’t seeing it.

The first response listed above from SravanKra totally worked for me. I had provided feedback to Apple, and they mentioned screen time settings might be the problem, but didn’t point out exactly which setting to change. Now I’m good to go!

I have followed the instructions and disabled restrictions it asks for my passcode which it accepts takes me to reset Face ID which as soon as I click says not allowed try later! How on earth can I reset Face ID???

Just followed all your steps on my daughter’s iPhone 11 running iOS 17.2.1 and Face ID & Passcode did indeed become visible in Settings. But when she then initially tried to set Face ID up, we got “Face ID is Not Available. Try setting up Face ID later”, which popped up as she was doing the first scan on her face. Any thoughts?

Hi

Face id & password are not in settings.

I’ve followed all instructions many times.

restrictions enabled/ but doesn’t ask for passcode.

I’m sure I used one. Then, there is no place to change anything as was suggested.

• Tapped on Content & Privacy Restrictions
• Scrolled down to Allow Changes
• Tapped on Passcode Changes
• Changed the setting to Allow

Anyway-I’ve changed so much from last update-ringtones all now the same or had to choose new text tones, bc many deleted.

i can’t get an app push notification to allow me to read on Lock Screen and then it’s just gone-I’ve missed several important events and so far just this app?????

My Face ID also stopped working suddenly today after an update last night… I have checked settings and have no restrictions turned on within screentime but do not even have “Face ID & Password” as an option within settings!

PLEASE FIX THIS!! I use key generated passwords for everything and it’s extremely impractical to not use the Face ID (bc touch isn’t an option bc no button on iPhone 15 pro) for logging in.

I read through all the replies snd I trued yours. Nothing is working. I did settings: screen time : content & privacy restrictions. They were not enabled. I tried enabling and do not allow changes for face id. Still, the face ID section is not showing under accessibility. There are no parental controls set and no one else able to block settings. What else may I try?

Thanks Sravan helped a lot

Thanks so much for this help you are genius 😇😇😇

Me too

Thank u Saravana sir. U r genius.

he thought I was losing my mind when we could find alt face on my husband’s phone but not mine. Thank you for saving my reputation!

I don’t have I’d passcode,assabilty, or sere time either and I want Face ID?

It’s my personal phone and my work doesn’t have restrictions.
