The Morning After: Apple tests iPhone face unlocking that works with a mask

If you bought the newest iPhone last year, you might have struggled with unlocking it on the go. Yes, like all iPhones since the iPhone X, there's Face ID, but when half your face is covered with a mask, it doesn't work. With Apple's new iOS 14.5 developer beta, you can unlock your iPhone via Face ID even in a mask -- just so long as you own an Apple Watch and are wearing it at the time. You'll just need to glance at your iPhone, and you'll get a haptic buzz on your wrist, letting you know the unlock was successful. With your Apple Watch unlocked and on your person, your iPhone will unlock through FaceID despite much lower facial recognition accuracy.
