On March 15, the iPhone officially pushed the iOS 15.4 update to users, and the biggest update highlight was that the iPhone 12 and subsequent models supported wearing masks and using face ID, which triggered heated discussion among netizens.
According to the iPhone function introduction page, the Face ID function upgrade includes: the use of Face ID when wearing a mask on iPhone12 and subsequent models is added; the use of Face ID when wearing a mask can be used to use Apple Pay and autofill passwords in App and Safari browsers.
In addition, after the iOS 15.4 system update, emojis such as emoticons, gestures and household items are now added to the emoji keyboard. On iPhone XS, iPhoneXR, iPhone 11, or later, Siri provides time and date information when offline.
Nandu reporter paid attention to the fact that users who update iOS15.4 and choose to use the "wear a mask to use face ID" function need to re-enter the face ID on the mobile phone, and do not need to wear a mask during the entry process.
Users can also enter a face ID with glasses, and can enter multiple glasses that are usually worn, but at present, this feature does not support face ID recognition for wearing sunglasses.
According to Sina Digital Weibo, after the small editor personally tested, it was found that "wearing a mask and using face ID" is suitable for masks of various sizes, colors and styles, and even the filter mask used for spray painting can be unlocked normally.
As soon as the iPhone support mask unlock function message came out, many iPhone users could not wait to update the system to start the experience. Netizens generally said that the experience is good, unlocking "smooth", unlocking mobile phones without taking off masks to facilitate daily use such as checkout.
However, after the experience, some netizens said, "If you wear glasses, there are requirements for the angle, otherwise it will remind 'the eyes have a covering'".
Some netizens also pointed out that the iOS 15.4 system occupies too much memory. There are also users who are worried that updating the new system will affect the power consumption of mobile phones.
