They’re not finished yet in providing breakthrough smart technology. There’s a new feature called Face ID Access, which we can get via software update. This technology instantly unlocks the Vivo V7+ using facial recognition.
To let it use, go to the Settings of the phone, then Fingerprint, Face and Password options. Afterwards, select Face then slide the “Unlock” option to the right to enable it. But, be sure to have a lock screen password to use the facial recognition and avoid dim areas. Once done, read the disclaimer first then click “Continue”. Position your face in the circular frame. Just wait until it reaches 100% to complete the face registration.
Lock the phone, wake it up again and place the phone in front of you. It directly unlocks the phone without pressing any key and will go straight ahead to the home screen.
As of now, we were in love in using the Vivo V7+. Starting in the display, the selfie camera performance and long battery life, this smartphone had a reputation on being one of the best Android devices in the mid-range segment.
