Face ID not working for Hidden Apps on my refurbished iPhone 14 Pro

I was using WEHE, to check if there is any data throttling happening and it checked an app called Discord and gave results. An app I didnt know I had. When I went to open hidden apps, it would not accept my face or PW. Discord sounds creepy & is apparently a vid/ tex chat - help, yikes!!

Any report from a third-party app cannot be validated here in this forum.


If you encounter any challenges with third-party applications, the best course of action is to directly contact the app developer for further assistance. Here's a brief guide on how to do it:


  1. Identify the app developer.
  2. Visit their website or app store listing.
  3. Look for their contact information or support channels.
  4. Clearly describe the issue you are facing.
  5. Provide any necessary information they may need.
  6. Follow their instructions and provide feedback.
  7. Be patient and follow up if needed.


By reaching out to the app developer, you increase your chances of receiving accurate and personalized support for the challenges you're experiencing. To contact an App developer --> How to contact an app developer - Apple Support

I guess my point is, face ID & PW are fine for everything BUT opening the hidden apps in their folder, or changing that permission. So I learned about the hidden app "discord" inadvertently -- when WEHE software verified it was not throttling data.. and now am alarmed what it may be doing while "hidden ." Nothing wrong with Wehe or my normal use of face ID & PW. I am just unable to delete or acess "discord."
