Apple has launched the iOS 15.4 update for iPhones that brings a much awaited feature. The update will allow users of the iPhone 12 and 13 series to use Face ID to unlock their phones while wearing a mask.
The feature is only available for the iPhone 12, 12 mini, 12 Pro, and 12 Pro Max, and the iPhone 13, 13 mini, 13 Pro, and 13 Pro Max.
Face ID now scans unique features around the eye area to authenticate, and users do not need to re-add their faces while wearing masks to use the feature.
