Anyone know why I don't see it?
 
You have whatever it was in settings enabled? I think it was in accessibility perhaps? (I don't know it's needed, but I'm sure I saw something in there)
 
Fairly sure the answer is no said:
Wait until you go on holiday, wear caps,, hats, glasses etc. I imagine those times are when you'll notice faceunlock failing. But what happens then. How do you get it to try again?

Works with my Bennie hat on when I walk the dog, works with my sun glasses and my gaming headset. Can't imagine I will wear any more head gear.

I guess the final straw would be you use the pin ?

Android 10 hasn't been out 2 years?! I'm asking specifically about stock Android 10. I've been able to for many years too, but now I have stock Android 10 I can't

Yes as I said "on android 10" I'm my post, and to clarify I could for at least a couple yearson android.

Thats a real bummer then. Something I'm surprised hasn't been mentioned yet.

OK that's good to hear.

So what of the times when you lock the phone and remember something you forgot to do. This is before moving it away from pointing at you. Does the phone instantly try and unlock? I assume not as when you lock it you'd have to hide your face. But how do you reactivate it to try get it to faceunlock?

To which I questioned 'stock Android 10?' I was just wanting to check if it was stock was all. Really annoyed I can't do it like I've been able to... but I've just googled why.

You can get back to your traditional Android lock screen by going into the face unlock settings (under security) and deactivate "Skip lock screen." In this mode, the phone still unlocks when you look at it, but you can peruse expandable notifications on the lock screen and swipe up to clear the lock screen when you're done. So, that's an extra step to start using the phone, but maybe that's worth the trade-off to you.

I'd rather go right to the phone I guess.

Surely you've locked the screen by pressing the power button? If not, press it and press it again anyway and you're back in.
