's novel coronavirus pneumonia is still in trouble, which has caused many iPhone users trouble, because wearing masks will prevent Face ID from working properly. Users are forced to temporarily remove their masks and sweep their faces, or enter a security code to unlock the iPhone. < / P > < p > in the beta version of IOS 14.5, apple is trying a new method, that is, using apple watch to authenticate and unlock users with face ID while wearing masks. Similar to Apple watch, which is used to unlock Macs, people wearing Apple watch can unlock their iPhones through their face ID, but only if their apple watch is always nearby. < / P > < p > Joanna stern, a technology journalist, first discovered the change, but it's only for unlocking iPhones at the moment. Functions such as face brushing and payment still need to scan or enter a password. < / P > < p > during the whole epidemic period, the slow unlocking of face ID has always plagued Apple users, and even prompted the New York Metropolitan Transportation Bureau to put forward a request, hoping that apple can enable users to verify their identity faster without taking off their masks. < / P > < p > Apple has tried to improve the face ID function for users wearing masks in IOS 13.5. In that update, if a mask is detected, the face ID will automatically ask the user to provide a password instead of waiting for the face ID authentication timeout to send a reminder. (small)
