Hello DreaMz999, In Settings go to

  • Face ID & Passcode
  • Enter your Passcode
  • In the "Use Face ID For:" section turn off Face ID
  • This will require you entering your passcode for just about everything, but you will have access.
  • If you have an Apple Watch Scroll down a little further on same screen and you will see "UNLOCK WITH APPLE WATCH". That might make it easier for you without the use of your iPhone front camera.
