Third-party screen repairs kill Face ID on iPhone 13, but iOS 15 could fix it
Apple launched the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Pro last Friday to rave reviews. Although the new models look similar to their predecessors, the improved battery life and the smooth 120Hz display make a real difference. Unfortunately, while Apple brought many upgrades to the latest iPhone, it also introduced a significant downgrade for third-party repairs. As one YouTuber recently discovered, if a third-party repair store attempts to replace the screen on an iPhone 13, Face ID will stop working. The good news is that it's entirely possible for this issue to be fixed by iOS 15. The bad news is there's no indication that Apple will actually make the changes necessary to fix it.
