The beta version of iOS 145 brings one of the best features of the Covid-19 era to the iPhone During the pandemic, everyone had to wear face masks, making it difficult to use Face ID on iPhones Fortunately, Apple has implemented a very good solution and we had to install it on some of our personal devices

There is a catch The user needs an Apple Watch Also, installation is not that easy So we decided to create a complete guide to setting up the best Apple Watch model unlock on iOS 145 and watchOS 74

All you need to know about your own security is that you will receive a small buzzer and notification on your Apple Watch when you use this feature - and there is a button to lock your iPhone in case your iPhone is unlocked against your intention

Oh, and there's also a button to lock your iPhone in case it is unlocked against your intention

Oh, and yes, this requires watchOS 74 beta, so there are two betas to download First you need to install the iOS 145 beta

Only the following iPhone and Apple Watch models can support iOS 14 and watchOS 7 I tested with an Apple Watch 5 and an iPhone 12 Pro Max

Create an archive backup of your iPhone iCloud backup is fine, but doing this locally will give you more immediate access to your backups connect your iPhone to your Mac with a Lightning cable and open the Finder (or iTunes for macOS Mojave and earlier) Find iPhone in the left menu and check "Back up all iPhone data" and "Encrypt local backups" Enter the password for the backup and click Apply to view the iPhone backup

Then click "Manage Backups," right-click on the backup, select "Archive," and click "OK"

You should do this in case something goes wrong - beta software always comes with potential hiccups If it was perfect and ready to go, they would ship it out to everyone

The first thing you need to do is migrate your iPhone to the public beta of iOS, the same goes for watchOS,

To do this, go to Apple's Beta Software Program and log in with your Apple ID by clicking Sign in or Sign up 19]

Then click Get Started under iOS 14, click Get In the Started section, tap "enroll your iOS device" Under Install Profile, tap Download Profile Then tap "Allow" and then tap "Close"

In the Settings app, tap General, then tap Profiles Next, tap the downloaded iOS 14 & iPadOS 14 Beta Software Profile and tap Install You may need to restart your phone

Next, go to Settings, tap General, then tap Software Update to install the iOS public beta This may take a while, but not as long as a local iPhone backup

Return to Apple's Beta Software Program on your iPhone, sign in, and tap "Get Started" Then tap the watchOS tab and under Get Started, tap "enroll your Apple Watch"

Tap "Download Profile," tap "Allow," then tap "Install" (in the Watch app you switched to) In the Watch app, tap "General," then tap "Software Update" Then install the available watchOS 74 public beta

On the iPhone, go to Settings and tap FaceID and Passcode

Scroll down to "Unlock with Apple Watch" and find a toggle switch next to the watch name Turn this switch on

After unlocking your Apple Watch (with Face ID or PIN number), the phone should unlock if you are wearing a face mask Mastering these little tricks will take all the friction out of using Face ID with a face mask on

The main trick to know about this feature is to keep your iPhone close to your Apple Watch In other words, keep your iPhone in your pocket near the arm on which you are wearing the Apple Watch

Once I started doing that, everything worked like magic
