Hello artist83,


While we do advise using Face ID for the added security it brings to your device, turning off Face ID can be done by following the guidance in this support article: Set up Face ID on iPhone - Apple Support.


"Turn off Face ID

  1. Go to Settings  > Face ID & Passcode.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • Turn off Face ID for specific items only: Turn off one or more of the options.
    • Turn off Face ID for face masks: Turn off Face ID with a Mask.
    • Turn off Face ID: Tap Reset Face ID."



We hope this helps. Let us know if we can assist with anything else at all. Take care.
