Unlocking Phone with Face Recognition

[Annandale]

I have set up unlocking of the phone using my phone, however when I lock the phone I do not get an option for face recognition, just finger print.  What do I need to do to get this to show?

It's not possible to change that,sorry.

Do you not see anything circling the front camera? I see a little white swirl around the camera on the S20+

As @TheSpudman stated, when you turn on the screen there should be a white circle swirl around the front camera. This indicates its using facial recognition to unlock. If it's successful, depending on what option you've selected to unlock, it'll go straight to your home screen (or last app when the screen was turned off) or the unlock (padlock icon) will be open indicating you need to swipe the screen to unlock.

Just to clarify. you say you've set up unlocking on phone. Have you set up the facial recognition in the settings? Once completed, when you turn the phone on , and you are looking straight ahead at the phone, it will unlock and take you to your homescreen. There isn't any outline image to place face to align, as with older phones. Just padlock at top by the camera that can be refreshed if it doesn't work first time.

Thanks for all your help.  I was able to locate the icon and redid the face recognition set up and it works now.
