Face ID with Mask Available to iPhone 11 and older devices in iOS Update 15.4

Hi All,


I just wanted to know if the new Face ID with Mask feature will be Available to iPhone 11 and older users or only to iPhone 12 and 13 users in the latest iOS Update 15.4 version?


I saw a lot of youtube videos where they specifically mention that these features are not available for other devices and are only for iPhone 12 and 13 users. It was really disheartening. I would really love to have these features on other devices as well.


Please let me know what you all think about this.


Thank You.

Until now, you can only unlock the iPhone using your Apple Watch, if wearing a mask.

And it seems to be true, that only newer iPhone models series 12 and 13 will be supporting this feature. I guess, older hardware can't handle this process of comparing only a small part of your face, to check your ID.
