My Face ID is showing in-depth error. And I can’t use my Face ID

“A problems was detected with the TrueDepth camera. Face ID has been disabled”. This was a problem detected in my phone. I don’t know if it can be fixed.

You will need to go to an Apple Store or authorized service provider to see if it can be fixed. I’ve copied the information below from the link above your post.


  1. Update your iPhone or iPad to the latest version of iOS or iPadOS.
  2. Check if there is an issue with Face ID in your iPhone's parts and service history. To do this, open the Settings app, tap General, then tap About.
  3. If you still can't enroll your face or unlock your device with Face ID, you can take your device to an Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider, or contact Apple Support about your iPhone or your iPad.


Only a trained technician should service your device. Improper repair, modification, or use of nongenuine Apple components in the laser systems might prevent the safety mechanisms from functioning properly and could cause hazardous exposure and injury to eyes or skin.
