Is Face ID telling you to "move your iPhone a little lower" or "a little higher," even when your face is aligned perfectly in the frame? If you're seeing these errors more often when using Face ID, your face may still not be recognized, even when you move your iPhone lower or higher! Fortunately, when Face ID is not working, there's usually an easy fix. This How.com.vn guide will teach you what to do when Face ID keeps telling you to move your iPhone lower or higher.
Things You Should Know
- The "Move your iPhone a little lower" error is often caused by a smudged or obstructed camera lens.
- Use a dry, lint-free cloth to clean the lens(es), even if you don't see any dust or debris.
- Many people report that gently smacking the top of their iPhones with their hands a few times permanently stops the error.
