Here some steps for How to setup Face ID on your iPhone or iPad Pro:

Setup Face ID

Make sure nothing covers the TrueDepth camera or your face. If there is an obstruction to your nose or mouth – such as glasses or a face mask – you may be asked to temporarily remove these items during setup.

You can also use Face ID and face masks when using iPhone 12 or later with iOS 15.4 and later. Face ID works best if your iPhone or iPad is about 10–20 inches from your face.

To set Face ID:

Go to Settings, then tap Face ID and passcode. If requested, enter your passcode. If you did not set a passcode, you will be asked to create one that you will use as an alternative to authentication.
Tap Set Face ID.
Hold your device in standing position, position your face in front of your device, and press Start.
Position your face inside the frame and move your head gently to complete the circle. If you can’t remove your head, tap Access Options.
When you have finished scanning the first Face ID, tap Continue.
Move your head gently to complete the second circle.
Tap Done.

To select the features you want to use Face ID or reset Face ID, go to Settings, then tap Face ID & Password Code.
