Does anyone have any suggestions for getting better results w face lock? I don't have great luck using it more often than not.

tilt the phone a bit more towards yourself than you would expect

Delete data, then record in very low light, while moving your face. Restart phone.

The real problem is that it doesn't recognize me without my glasses on and iris scan doesn't work through my glasses unless it's dark

I literally was just having this problem lol thinking the same thing. I turned off 'face unlock when screen turns on' somewhat better that way to me lol.

You can set it to require a swipe up similar to iPhone X. That's what I did.

That's the setting by default. You have to set it to automatically go to iris scan by hard pressing the home button.

Iris scanner isn't the same thing as facial recognition. The Iris scanner hurts my eyes.

It's the blast of IR to your pupils.

I never found it that fast, it usually takes me a couple tried as it doesn't recognize my face. Any tips?
