Apple Corp. has created new ways to enable its phone users to unlock devices in an unconventional way that does not rely on the face or voice.
The company has obtained a patent for the new technology of the definition of touch, which depends on the position of the finger, cheek or ear anywhere on the phone screen.
The new technology relates on the introduction of the "fingerprint reader" on the entire phone screen, rather than pressing a button on the phone.
Once you touch an iPhone screen, users will be able to unlock the phone, make payments, and enter passwords.
The new technology is likely to be applied to the next iPhone.
Apple filed the patent in September 2016, but it was not announced until Tuesday.
