    <p>I’ve got this search bar desktop thing in Windows 10. Are you sure it’s not related to the dev channel of Edge?</p>

    <p>I suspect most iPhone users who watch this podcast also have an Apple Watch, which solves the "Unlock with a mask on" problem. I don’t even consciously think about unlocking my phone except when it’s done by the watch, and when that happens, the watch notifies me so I have the option to re-lock it.</p>

      <p>I don’t think most iPhone users overall have an Apple Watch. If they did, it would be a much bigger business. But I’m also not super-happy with the notion that spending more money to solve a problem is the best approach. The iPhone could also just have a free Touch ID sensor on its power button like the iPad Air does. </p>
