Face ID not working after 17.4.1

My Face ID is not working after the install of 17.4.1.


It says Face ID is not working right now. Try again later.


I tried restarting my phone and it still doesn’t work.

iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 17

Exact same problem, except everything I’ve tried listed on this form and elsewhere. It doesn’t work. It was working fine when I went to bed, installed update overnight and now it tells me Face ID is unavailable. Try again later. I have restored factory defaults. I’ve reset the phone from the settings. I tried resetting Face ID it again, just tells me unavailable try again later.
