When Apple introduced FaceID, its proprietory biometric authentication, the company envisioned an easier way to unlock smartphones. However, thanks to Coronavirus-led pandemic, it became useless as face masks became an essential part of our attire. So now, with the latest iOS 14.5 Developer Beta, Apple is allowing users to unlock their iPhones via FaceID even when they are wearing a face mask.
Apart from this feature, with the developer beta of iOS14.5, Apple also added support for Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 controllers to iPhones and iPads. Moreover, as we saw last week, this iOS beta is the first update to completely implement the company’s App Tracking Transparency framework to prevent apps from tracking users across other third-party apps.
