Just the past few days I have been having intermittent problems with the iphone 13 pro max not unlocking with my watch SE. In fact unlocking all together has been a bit intermittent. Even with just face ID. I reset my face ID but still having times (several a day) where I have to enter my password while wearing a mask because watch unlock didn't activate. Is anyone else finding this recently? It has been flawless in the past......well, since they fixed it early on after release anyway.

Have you tried rebooting both your iPhone and your Watch?

I have yes, but whether it does anything or not is hard to say because it is intermittent and seems to always come back to varying degrees.

And it's still doing it today after updating to 15.3.

I’ve had times when it’s been intermittent as well, although not recently. Sorry I can’t be of more help but if iOS 15.4 (out in beta) continues to keep the face-mask unlock feature in when it’s released, you may not have to worry about it. Seems as though it’ll be useable without an Apple Watch and will also work unlocking individual apps which would be great.
