iPhone face unlock, mask accommodation, and pacifiers

[blaincorrous]

Hats off to Apple for implementing a masked face accommodation for unlocking phones. If you have a watch connected and unlocked, it will detect a masked face and do the unlock based on the proximity of the watch.

If it works for masks, it works for pacifiers, too…

I was thinking about this the other day

The other day, I downloaded the iOS update that added face unlock for masks, without the use of an Apple Watch. I check my phone, and BOOM! Unlocked, with a pacifier in my mouth.
