The next big software update will allow you to use your Apple Watch to unlock your iPhone and bring Fitness Plus to more screens.

The Lede

The pandemic has changed so much about our everyday lives, in ways both great and small. On the relatively-insignificant-but-slightly-annoying end of the spectrum has been the inability to unlock iPhones using Face ID while wearing a mask. Slightly more damaging has been the inability to exercise at the gym, which has required many to do so at home. The forthcoming iOS and WatchOS updates will help on both fronts.

Key Details

  • Using devices running iOS 14.5 and WatchOS 7.4, Apple users will be able to unlock their iPhones using FaceID — via Apple Watch — even while wearing a mask.
  • Apple Watch will alert the wearer with a haptic that their iPhone is unlocked.
  • Apple Watch owners who subscribe to (or are trying out) Fitness Plus will be able to cast their workout on any TV or device that has AirPlay 2.
