Allows Apple to unlock the iPhone while wearing the mask. When you wear an Apple Watch, Face ID works the same as when you don’t wear a mask.
Apple announced on the 2nd that it has released beta versions of the developers of’iOS 14.5′ and’iPadOS 14.5′ including these contents. Full-scale software distribution is said to be this spring.
Accordingly, even if you wear a mask that covers both your mouth and nose, if you are wearing the Apple Watch, you can unlock the iPhone with Face ID by just looking at it as usual.
For the security of users’ devices and data, Apple made sure that an authenticated Apple Watch is worn on the wrist, and the distance between devices is close. In addition, when the iPhone is unlocked through the Apple Watch, haptic feedback is delivered to the user’s Apple Watch, and the user can lock the device again through an option.
This will make it possible to use the iPhone more conveniently even in the mask era, which has become a daily routine in the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19) pandemic (a global pandemic).
Since the recently released Apple iPhone series is designed to unlock the iPhone through Face ID, not through fingerprint recognition, some users also complained of the inconvenience of having to use the iPhone through face recognition every time.
Meanwhile, with this update, Apple has made it possible to track users only after obtaining user permission from the developer. In’Settings’, you can check which apps are allowed to track and change the settings.
