Apple’s Face ID tech could come to Mac in a ‘couple of years’
Apple’s FaceID technology has been the primary touch of personal security on the company’s iPhone series for years. However, Apple could be reportedly planning to bring the tech to its Mac computers, suggests Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman.
In his latest newsletter, Gurman mentions that Apple’s ultimate goal is to shift all its products to FaceID, including lower-end iPhones like the iPhone SE series, which currently continue to use TouchID, Apple’s fingerprint sensor implementation.
“It won’t happen this year, but I’d bet Face ID on the Mac is coming within a couple of years. I expect all iPhones and iPads to transition to Face ID within that timeframe, too,” Gurman says in his report.
