Apple is also working on introducing a new Face ID feature that will allow users to unlock their iPhone without removing the face mask.

This feature is currently available in the beta version of iOS 13.5.

The iPhone will be able to identify the user despite the face mask, through a pass-code the entry screen will appear when swiping up at the bottom of the screen, after which the device will not search the user’s face.

Most beta versions have a number of features that are not part of the final version, but this new feature will definitely be introduced because the coronavirus pandemic is likely to continue for several months.
