Thanks for reaching out Jvalle57,


We'd be happy to help with. your iPhone not locking.


Do you notice if this happens when you have a specific app or feature open? Try changing the passcode and check if the locking feature works correctly then:

Use a passcode with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


Also, use the side button to try locking your iPhone.


Let us know the results.

Regards.

Thank you for responding, Yes I have use the side still does not lock,I have reset the face ID I have reset my iPhone 11. The only time it shows Passcode Face ID is when iPhone is asleep for a couple hours ( I did try for 30 sec 1 min 2 min etc). Did change passcode still the same. Like I said this happen after 16.3 update. Probably Apple Store my next stop
