How do I setup face unlock on a Xperia 10 IV?

[ShaunIOW]

As per title, as I cannot find the option, only none, swipe, pattern, pin, password but no face unlock.  I just got the phone a few days ago and having to enter a PIN every time the screen goes off is a pain in the *****.  It's running Android 13 and is all updated.

Cheers

Hi @ShaunIOW  and welcome to the Community

You can't use face unlock on an Xperia 10 IV.

Have you tried setting up the fingerprint reader option?

If not, here's  a quick guide.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply.

Well that's a pain in the ***** as all the reviews said it had face unlock and it was a straight choice between this and the Google Pixel 6a and I chose this as the Pixel didn't have face unlock even though a better phone, but I really needed face unlock due to wearing gloves most of the time so finger print unlock isn't really viable.  Looks like it'll be going back and I don't know why it wouldn't have have it when cheaper older phones do and it's a feature in Android.
