Unsurprisingly, Apple is working on an iOS 27 update that will fix an issue affecting some iPhone 18 Pro users where Face ID is failing and forcing a restart.
A Face ID bug is causing restarts for a small number of iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max users.

Whenever millions of devices are released alongside a new OS, there are problems. In the case of the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max, some users reported restarts caused by kernel panics, so unexpected and unforced restarts.
One Reddit user said this happened when the Wallet app was opened. That same user, and two others, also reported crashes after Face ID failed to recognize them.
