iPhone 15 Lost Mode broken Face ID Hello everyone, yesterday I lost my iphone 15 pro Max. I got it back and deactivated lost mode via iCloud. My phone apparently fell on the ground as the front camera is broken. Now when I enter my passcode it asks for Face ID to completly disable lost mode. But that won’t work cause Face ID doesn’t work in general. So I got no access to my phone screen and a non working Face ID lense. what can I do?

How do I exit from Lost Mode on my iPhone XR? I lost my found and marked it as a lost device on Find My. I found my phone again and stopped the lost mode however on my phone it still asks me to exit lost mode. This would be fine if my Face ID worked however for the past few weeks my Face ID has been disabled for some reason. Now I can’t exit lost mode at all, had I known it needed my Face ID to exit lost mode, I would have never enabled it. Please help, I urgently need my phone for work. [Re-Titled by Moderator]
