Jeff is working on streamlining the Blind Abilities podcasts and checking in on Brian now and then as the pandemic has been horrific in the New York area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ok, does your iPhone face ID work while wearing a mask? You can just pull your mask down below the nose area and Face ID should work fine. However, check out the Alternate ID demo and find out how to add an Alternate ID or 2nd person to your Face ID.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>BTW, do we really care about Amazon Day being moved? Whatever, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be My Eyes gets a call to be a hero and Rooster Boy saves the day.
