How to use Face ID on any iPhone

Face ID is an innovative feature that uses facial recognition to unlock a smartphone. It was first introduced with the iPhone X, and it replaced the Touch ID. Face ID is only available on the iPhone X, so owners of older models can not use it.

Fortunately, now there is a way to use Face ID on any iPhone. This is possible due to the jailbreak application Appellancy , which simulates the function of Face ID on older iPhone models. With this application you can unlock your smartphone with your face.

Below, we'll show you how to use Appellancy on your iPhone with iOS 11.

How to use Face ID on any iPhone

Step 1: Open the Cydia application, go to the sources tab and add the following repository: http://julioverne.github.io

Step 2: When the source is added and all of its files are downloaded, search through the Tweak Appellancy search and install it.

Step 3:  Go back to the home screen and start the application. Click the "+" button in the upper right corner of the screen to add a new user. Here you can take a picture of your face so that the application can recognize you.

The more photos you make, the better face recognition will work. You can take a picture of your face under a variety of angles. You can also add the faces of your relatives so that they too can unlock your smartphone.

Step 4: Everything is ready. Now, to unlock your iPhone, just bring it to your face so that the front camera can recognize it. A second later the device will be unlocked.

Now you can add Face ID to your iPhone. It is important to note that the application only simulates the Face ID function, and does not add it to the device. The application is not as secure as Face ID and much less as a Touch ID or password. They can only play or surprise friends.

Developers tweaks are becoming more creative and add more new features to the old models of the iPhone. If you have not yet installed a jailbreak on your device, you can use our step-by-step instructions on how to install the jailbreak Electra .
