It’s undoubtedly that Apple iPhone X’s Face ID is a better option than the fingerprint scanner. We know that the iPhone X unlocked can be done by your twin. But it turns out that your children can unlock its too. Check out the story of the Malik family’s discovery below!
iPhone X Face ID unlocked story: me, my twin and my children?
Notedly, Apple claims that the chance of a random person unlocking your iPhone X via Face ID is 1 in 1,000,000, compared to 1 in 50,000 for Touch ID. While this number may apply to a random person, your family members undoubtedly have a much higher chance of breaking through this security technology. This week, the iPhone community most discussed topic is the story of the Malik family’s iPhone X unlocked discovery.
They found out when 10-year old Ammar unlocked his mom’s iPhone X quickly without any issues. Moreover, he didn’t even need to use the trick including a 3D printed mask to get past Apple’s new biometric security. He has his mom’s genes and similar figures, what more does he need? Here, let’s watch a demo video below of Ammar unlocking his mom’s iPhone X to understand better:
When Ammar’s mom sets up Face ID again (in good light this time), he can no longer access it. For now, the lesson here is that Apple iPhone X users need to be more careful when they set up Face ID first. Additionally, doing it indoor at night can mess with the accuracy (due to the lighting or camera sensor).

For now, Apple is quite confident in their iPhone X’s Face ID security level. In our opinion, they need to invest in more improvement to prevent this situation. Suggested by “9to5mac.com“, Apple can develop the reliability of Face ID for people with similar-looking family members by offering an ‘advanced training mode’ in Face ID settings.
