Face ID not working for passport verification

Hello, I’m using an iPhone 14 and Face ID works for logging into apps.However, in some card apps, especially for passport identity verification, Face ID recognizes my face but doesn’t complete the passport verification process. It works fine on another iPhone, but not on mine. I have reset Face ID and updated iOS, but the issue persists. Can you help me with this?

iPhone 14, iOS 18

You’re saying Face ID isn’t working. Face ID uses the TrueDepth camera. The front facing or selfie camera is a traditional camera. TrueDepth camera uses a 3D model of your face. There are two entirely different systems.


Specifically, what app is not working? This is sounding more and more like an app issue and not a iPhone issue.
