facial recognition at home only

Hi! Have you folks did a way to enable facial recognition at home only? I wanted to have my iPhone marked my home as a safe location in location service, and automatically enable facial recognition. And disabled it if I leave home.

You heard of partners unlock the others partner’s phone while they are sleeping using facial recognition. 😂 But what if it happens when I’m unconscious in public or let’s say at the hospital?

I went to location services hoping I could setup that there and then in facial recognition mark my home as a place to enable facial ID. No such option. Have you folks come across that? Maybe we have to ask or wait for Apple to make it available.

What you really want to do is enabled Settings>Face ID & Passcode>Require Attention for Face ID. If that's enabled, you need to be looking at the screen and your eyes need to be open.

Apple's Stolen Device Protection uses the exact opposite model. It disables changing of passwords away from Home (or other safe locations). However, it absolutely requires that you have Face ID enabled.

But seriously, depspite what you see on television, this is not a huge problem.

That is not possible to do because Face 🆔 it’s enabled everywhere you go , if you didn’t knew Face 🆔 read the eyes no just the face nobody can put your own iPhone in front of your face while you are sleeping or unconscious because if your eyes are closed that isn’t possible to unlock the iPhone , send those comments to this link
