Will my smartphone facial ID work with EyeQLenz with Zenni ID Guard?

EyeQLenz reflects most near-infrared light, so it can disrupt features like facial login technology that relies on infrared detection. You may need to remove the glasses for these features to work properly. This is an indicator that the anti-IR coating is working as intended.
