Use Face ID with a mask
The coronavirus crisis is far from over. The virus continues to circulate in the population. The reproduction rate even goes up in certain regions. Social distancing, wearing a mask and regular hand washing help limit the transmission of the virus.
Even if it is not obligatory the wearing of the mask is strongly recommended in the public space. In fact, certain signs and large surfaces require it to enter their establishments. This is also the case in public transport..
