When Face ID pushes to use its Apple Watch

The current health context is shaking up our habits. Wearing the often compulsory mask, hydroalcoholic gel at the doors of stores, promotion of contactless payment, etc. The various barrier gestures force us to review our way of using certain electronic devices. The most vivid example is Face ID which no longer works when wearing a mask.

A few days ago we asked you if the incompatibility of Face ID with the masks made you change your settings or your behavior. By peeling your answers, we notice that many of you indicate that the Apple Watch has taken on a new importance in this context.

Tired of fighting with Face ID or having to enter your code several times a day, the Apple Watch is more useful for performing quick tasks, such as consulting notifications or making phone calls.

The connected watch is particularly attractive when it comes to contactless payment via Apple Pay. “I used Apple Pay systematically with the iPhone, to the point of forgetting the possibility with the Watch, testifies Filouche in the comments of the survey. In the end, after feeling stupid at not being able to unlock to pay (the keypad for the code did not appear), I started to use the Watch again. And it’s simple! “

Xalio abounds: “Something I hadn’t anticipated is that now I prefer to pay with the Apple watch than with the iPhone …” For the record, when you want to pay with your Apple Watch, just press its side button twice. Your default Apple Pay card will then appear on the screen and all you have to do is bring your wrist to the payment terminal. Whether you have a mask or gloves, this does not in any way hinder the use of Apple Pay on the watch!

This is an opportunity to discover or at least rediscover the features of your Apple Watch. This device is a precious ally for analyze his physical condition and get back in shape.
