To lock apps on your iPhone 13 using Face ID, download a third-party app locker from the App Store as iOS doesn’t provide this feature natively. Alternatively, use Screen Time: Go to Settings > Screen Time > App Limits, set up a limit for apps, and require a passcode. Apps included will require Face ID when the limit is reached. For specific privacy settings in Notes or banking apps, utilize their in-built settings for Face ID protection. This ensures your data remains secure and accessible only to you.**
