Last week we reported that replacing the iPhone 13 screen from a local repair store may cost the function of the face ID except the repair store also moved the microprocessor chip from the original iPhone 13 screen.
Repair experts recently reported that Apple has added control chips to the new iPhone needed for the face ID to work.
It is necessary to replace the chip from the original screen, which is a complex process and is very complicated to be handled by local repair stores due to the lack of appropriate tools.
Apple’s official repair shop, on the other hand, has a software tool that allows them to transfer the screen swap process smoothly including the chip needed for the face ID to work.
However, the threshold now reports that Apple plans to release this restriction and allow the face ID to function without replacing the microcontroller after the screen swap.
The website has confirmed that the company will bring this change through software updates in the future.
There is no official timeline provided by the company about the software update in question.
