Independent repairers, whose revenue is mainly based on iPhone screen repairs, have found these challenges overwhelming. Faced with mounting pressure, Apple decided to conduct a review of its copy. According to our colleagues at The Verge, Apple has stated that a fix for the bug is on the way for iOS. It will no longer be essential to transfer the chip that prevents Face ID from working, thereby allowing third-party repairers to resume their work in peace. The announcement came as a massive relief to the industry’s participants, who had lost a significant portion of their revenue due to the policy. This is fantastic news for both them and their customers.
