iPhone Face ID with mask option now available for some with latest Apple update

FILE - The Apple logo hangs at Apple's Carnegie Library store in Washington. The latest software update from Apple now allows some users to open their phone with Face ID while wearing a mask, according to multiple reports. iPhone users have complained that when they wear a mask or covering for their face to protect themselves against COVID-19 — particularly when running errands or going outside — they are unable to unlock their phones using Face ID. Now, Apple’s IOS Beta 15.4 update basically uses the function to identify the top portion of a user’s face to unlock their phone, according to TechCrunch. The latest feature may also only be available on iPhone 12s or newer, according to The Verge. Because the feature only uses half of a user’s face, it could potentially be less secure, which is why Apple is allowing people to opt-in or out to use it. Apple had been testing out Face ID options with a mask since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Volunteer program helps socially isolated veterans amid ongoing COVID-19 pandemic

who are isolated and potentially feeling lonely to have some social interaction, even if it’s just through a telephone call. The CCC expanded rapidly due to the ongoing pandemic and there became an increased need for social interactions for veterans, according to a VA blog post. "We were concerned about the isolation right away. We realized that a lot of our veterans, a lot of people, don't like to even admit that they are lonely, and so, until they do that, it's kind of hard for us to help the way we want to, but, we know that there's research that shows that chronic loneliness can be as bad for your health as smoking half a pack of cigarettes a day," Prince Taylor, deputy director for the VA Center for Development and Civic Engagement, told FOX 13 Tampa. So far, there are about 750 volunteers participating in the program across the country and they’ve been matched with over 1,500 veterans, Taylor continued.

Sarah Palin Dines In NYC After Positive COVID Test ‘Didn’t Present Vax Card’ On Prior Outing
