Use Your Apple Watch to Unlock Your iPhone
Last year, Apple added a feature that lets you unlock your iPhone just by having your Apple Watch nearby. You don’t have to face your iPhone or remove your face mask for this feature to work. Here’s how to enable it.
- On your iPhone, open the Settings app.
- Scroll down and tap on Face ID & Passcode.
- Enter your passcode.
- Scroll down and under Unlock With Apple Watch, enable your Apple Watch.
And that’s it! Keep in mind that your Apple Watch needs to be passcode protected and be unlocked for this feature to work. And of course, you’ll also need to have your Watch close by.
