Apple’s next iPhone software update will allow users to unlock their phones without taking off their mask. The updated Face ID feature will work on iPhones and iPads and will be included in iOS 15.4. The new software will allow customers to use a single keyboard and trackpad across multiple iPads and Macs.

Apple’s 3-D facial recognition system was launched back in the year 2017 as a feature of the new iPhone X. But it has become a headache due to the Covid-19 pandemic and users of iPhone was forced to remove their masks to unlock their iPhones. A temporary solution for this came last year when a software update allowed Apple Watch users to access their phones even when wearing a mask or sunglasses.
