    Hello everyone! I recently bought a new iPhone SE 2022 from A_maz_on UK.

    Can schools look at your past facetime calls?

    I heard from somewhere that your calls are recorded on school laptops and schools can go back and watch them. I personally don't believe this is true but I want confirmation. Is this true?

    This video has over 450k views and is misleading viewers about FaceID

    Upon first look, it's a regular video. But, whenever the camera switches from the guys on the couch to their hands on the phone, note that the skin color sometimes changes and the hand holding the phone sometimes switches, rendering the video fake clickbait. HOWEVER, it's going viral and the...
