You could probably mark time by the consistency of new iPhone releases, with new models appearing every Autumn. 

The iPhone 8 is currently under construction, and a release of data has revealed a very interesting potential feature on the new model. 

A tech leak about Apple's Home Pod speaker revealed more than it should have. 

The softwear code contained information about other Apple products, the iPhone 8 being one of them. 

The sequences of code showed that Apple are developing face detecting technology for unlocking iPhones. 

Our minds were blown when they brought in finger print recognition technology, and now all you'll need is your very own visage to open up your iPhone.

Rumour has it that the facial recognition softwear could replace the Touch ID function, or work alongside it. 

The face detection is said to use infared technology, meaning that faces will be detectable even in low luighting. 

We are truly living in the future, people.
