IF you find Face ID temperamental there’s a trick that could improve things.
iPhones require your attention to work properly – ie, your eyes are looking at the screen.
It’s designed to make your handset super secure.
So someone can’t just hold your iPhone up in front of your face to unlock it with Face ID while you sleep, for example.
But some people take issue with the way their device dims.
TikToker Jack Mathews reveals how you can change what he describes as the “most annoying thing” on an iPhone.
To do it, start by opening Settings.
Scroll down to Accessibility.
Tap Face ID & Attention.
Untick Attention Aware Features.

As the description says: “iPhone will check for attention before dimming the display, expanding a notification when locked, or lowering the volume of some alerts.”
So if this sounds like something you don’t like, go ahead an untick it.
You’ll have to enter your iPhone’s passcode to finalise it all.
Then everything’s all good to go.
