Less than a month after Apple announced that iOS 15.4 Beta supports wearing masks to unlock, Apple Face ID has a new trick!

According to MacRumors news, the Apple Store and Apple authorized service providers will soon be able to restore the Face ID of the iPhone XS and updated models, which means that when there is a problem with the Face ID of the Apple mobile phone in hand, there is no longer a need to replace the whole machine, and the Face ID will be able to be repaired separately.
Apple said authorized technicians will soon be able to use the new TrueDepth camera service part, which includes Face ID and a front-facing camera module, to repair the same device. This will help reduce the number of complete machine replacements and is part of the company's commitment to reduce the carbon footprint of its products.
The Apple Store and Apple Authorized Service Providers will be able to use the Apple Service Toolkit Diagnostic Tool to determine whether to perform a Face ID repair instead of replacing the entire machine. Apple said documentation and training will be available later.
Apple's Face ID was originally introduced on the iPhone X in 2017, but the repair service does not include the device, only the iPhone XS and newer devices.
