iPhone 14 unlock numpad missing after iOS 26.1 update

I have an iphone 14 and the ios 26.1 update. Ever since I did the update, the numpad to unlock my phone doesn't show up. I have to turn on/off my phone 2-3 times for it to appear. The faceID works though. I restarted my phone and the problem still persist.



iPhone 14, iOS 26

Update your iPhone to iOS 26.2, which was released a couple weeks ago. Then Force Restart your iPhone --> Force restart iPhone - Apple Support
