# Unlock Face Id

> Face ID authentication glyph

A Animated Icon component for React, Tailwind and shadcn by @educlopez, version 1.0.0, MIT licence.

A glyph showing Face ID authentication with animated brackets and a face. It transitions between states like scanning, success, and error. Use it to indicate authentication status in a UI.

## Install

```bash
npx layro-cli add @educlopez/unlock-face-id
```

Or with shadcn: `npx shadcn@latest add https://layro.dev/r/educlopez/unlock-face-id.json`

npm packages: motion
