Apple just pushed out iOS 15.4 which adds an option to use Face ID while wearing a mask, which works just like normal ?Face ID? but scans the areas around your eyes for authentication. This was out for people who had an Apple Watch, which allowed you to wear a mask and the apple watch would unlock your device using face ID. Now anyone without an apple watch can take advantage of this.
They have also included 37 new emoji characters, new Emergency SOS features, and tons more.
