Except that unlocking with your face in iOS is *not* only using an image
of your face but also the three dimensional shape of it. That's the
reason why the "notch" in the iPhone displays is bigger since there is
not only a camera but also a 3D sensor to capture the shape of your face.

Yes, in Android using *images* of a face to unlock a phone is indeed not
a good idea.
