- drpgq 6y agoApple used 3D based face recognition that only works when your face is right in front of the iPhone. We are a ways away from distance 3D face recognition, and given the advances with deep learning and bigger data sets in 2D, it isn't even necessary.

- lancepioch 6y agoNot only is Face ID only stored in the one secure Apple chip (and not uploaded to Apple), but I'm fairly certain that the face identification that you linked is also only stored on your device as well. Maybe it's changed, but I think that if you get a new device, it basically has to reindex all the faces iirc. Or maybe it's only stored in your own personal iCloud.
