I am not a fan of apple.  At all.  Their faceID is different from what most android phones are doing because of the complicated sensors.  Will it still work?  Who knows.  I think they are going to put out something good, because that's what apple does.

People are going to pretend that this is something innovative, and it might be.  But ultimately, android has been doing this kind of stuff for year.  Apple has lost their sense of innovation.  No one can deny that.  What they have to do instead is refine a tech until even an idiot can use it effectively.  That's why toddlers to grandparents can use iphones.

Does the algorithm adjust for people who are getting uglier at a rapid pace? Asking for a friend.
