The Android 13 QPR1 Beta (which is the December Quarterly Pixel Drop) strongly hints that Face Unlock is coming to the Pixel 6 Pro.

Alright, you made it through the Android 13 beta program and once the stable version of Android 13 was released, you were able to exit the program without having to wipe your Pixel. Now, you have the opportunity to start all over again by joining the Android 13 Quarterly Platform Release Beta. The Quarterly Platform Release is made up of the features that Google will drop in December. You might know this as the Quarterly Pixel Feature Drop.

So if you decide to install the Android 13 QPR1 Beta, the search field at the bottom of the homescreen will now look like the search field at the top of the app grid which means that the latter will have the link to the Google app at the left of the field, the microphone icon for Assistant, and the link to Google Lens at the right. However, the results still differ depending on whether you use the search on the bottom of the homescreen or the one on top of the app grid.

This would seem to indicate that possibly as soon as the next Quarterly Pixel Feature Drop in December, Google might disseminate Face Unlock for the Pixel 6 Pro. This could be offered using a simple software update because the Pixel 6 Pro front camera supports dual-pixel auto-focus . This would allow the system to be secure since a facial recognition system using a depth map can't be tricked using a photograph like 2D facial recognition systems can be.notes that Face Unlock is"less secure than a strong pattern, PIN, or password." Google also will tell users that looking at the phone could unlock it accidentally. Even if your eyes are closed, someone can put the phone up to your face while you're sleeping and unlock the device.
