So it's not too late, sure it would have been better to get earlier, but masks going to be here for long time still.

            Anybody please tell me how to pass the apple id screen. I've done everything right and added Apple account but can't make app store work and download apps. Apple makes everything hard and awful.

              Anonymous, 14 Mar 2022Right when face masks are no longer mandatory. Good timing,... moreyou came here just for that comment ?
              again masks aren't just for covid ... or didn't know you know masks have been around and in use for quite a while....and will continue to be used for a very long time in different situations.

                Finally but also too late. Already sold my 12 mini and have zero regrets. But Apple is also too late because most public places where I live no longer requires wearing a mask any more. Apple is always late to the party.

                  Just had it installed on my XR. Checked it randomly because it was said for iOS 15.4 to be released this week and it was there. Now I'm updating watch to WatchOS 8.5...

                  The reason FaceID only works with masks on iPhone 12 and newer is because Apple improved detection angle for FaceID on those models which is not found on older models. A bit unfortunate limitation, but oh well.

                  Otherwise, I checked the changelog and there is TONS of security updates. Apple really went ham with security updates in iOS 15.4.

                    Good Job Apple. Most countries don't require masks now. You moved very fast on this one. Only took you 2 years...
