Face ID is the most sophisticated biometrics authentication method available on smartphones and tablets. Introduced with the iPhone X in 2017, Face ID is available on all iPhone and iPad flagships. That means it's on every iPhone except for the SE, and all the iPad Pros. Only a few of Apple's rivals attempted to replicate the 3D face recognition system contained within the iPhone's notch design. Huawei, LG, and Google are among those who tried to release real Face ID alternatives. Everyone else pursued in-display fingerprint sensors since 2017, while Apple kept working on Face ID.
In addition to improving the accuracy and speed of Face ID authentication, Apple is also working to make the TrueDepth camera smaller. Eventually, it will be placed beneath the OLED screen. But a recent discovery shows that Apple is already developing a brilliant iPhone and iPad Face ID feature that most users will come to appreciate. Passively, permanently authenticating the user plays a crucial role in the new tech.
