iPhone users can skip Face ID, if using masks
By MYBRANDBOOK
iPhone users can now unlock their iPhone with Face ID, until they are wearing a mask. Apple released beta iPhone software that makes it easier to unlock iPhones without using Face ID and while wearing a mask.
Apple recognizes this, and in beta software released, it makes it a little easier to skip the Face ID display and enter your passcode, says a report.
But in the most recent iOS 13.5 beta, Apple lets users swipe up to enter a passcode and skip the delay.
Some Twitter users report that if the phone detects the user is wearing a mask, it will automatically jump to the passcode screen. Since this is still in beta, it may be a few weeks before the feature is made widely available. When it arrives, it should make accessing the phone while wearing a mask a little easier and quicker
That means the user will be able to unlock the phone much easily while doing things like mobile payments at a checkout counter instead of fumbling with mask or waiting for a passcode screen to pop up.
The new beta also includes the first release of new software from Apple that will make it easier to build apps to notify people if they’ve been near someone with COVID-19.
