How to disable Face ID on your iPhone X: Just squeeze it?

And what could provide more hours of entertainment than watching a fake Craig Federighi answer ridiculous questions about the new Face ID feature that will debut on the Apple iPhone X.

This information came by way of Apple's senior vice president of software engineering, Craig Federighi, who responded to a concerned user's email about the Face ID system. Krimbel posted a screenshot of Federighi's reply on Twitter along with a caption that read, "E-mailed #CraigFederighi about #FaceID and actually got a response!". But as we told you yesterday, the feature is created to require the user's passcode after two failed attempts to unlock the unit with Face ID.

One of those fears centres around whether law enforcement or thieves will be able to compel iPhone X owners to open their phones using the face scanning tech. Apple is yet to confirm whether it will allow more users to add their FaceID on a single device in the future.

According to Apple's documentation, Touch ID and Face ID are automatically disabled after five failed attempts, and require the passcode to re-enable them.

Apple also announced on stage that it had used photographs and 3D face masks to try to fool the Face ID system. As a outcome, law enforcement officials in several other instances have placed suspects fingers on phones to unlock them. It has an infrared camera and hardware to enable unlocking through recognising the face.

iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus are a new generation of iPhone that improve on everything we love about iPhone. iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus have new glass and aluminum designs, new Retina HD displays and A11 Bionic - the smartest chip ever in a smartphone.

"People were handling the device for stage demo ahead of time", says a rep, "and didn't realize Face ID was trying to authenticate their face".

Apple said during the event that it would continue to work even if you grew a beard, changed your hair, or put on a scarf or a hat.

Krimbel was anxious he'd need to use his passcode more frequently with Face ID than Touch ID.

Apple ditched Touch ID authentication method for Face ID in the newly launched iPhone X. Apple claims the new Face ID feature is more accurate and secure than Touch ID, which lets users to unlock the device using a fingerprint.
