      After allowing the camera and location permissions, click the Add face button.


      Now, carefully follow the on-screen instructions to complete the registration process.

      As you register your facial data, please remain still and avoid any movement until the capture is complete.

      Upon successful registration, the admin has the option to log in seamlessly using either facial recognition or a PIN code.
