FaceID works a very few angles with glasses. Won’t work if my glasses have been exposed to rain (it rains like 70% of the year where I live). Struggle to work with face masks and glasses. I have to hold the phone at eye level to unlock it (ie: can’t unlock it discretely). If I’m lying in bed and the phone is lying in front of me, I can just tap to unlock with TouchID, but need to shuffle it around and raise my face for FaceID.
I rolled back to TouchID after a few months, it was intolerable.
I have an impression this gets worse the more correction your glasses have.
Huh. I've got pretty bad eyesight (so I've got noticeable corrective lenses) and I can't say I've noticed any of the issues you mention.
I actually had to disable some FaceID stuff because it was too easy to get to the Home Screen when I wanted to just look at the clock.
