So, from these developers, it is confirmed that Google is trying hard to add this feature in futures updates. But there is no confirmed date when will this happen in the coming days. Maybe at the launch of Google I/O and Google Pixel 6a Launch. According to rumors is testing this feature in some devices, they are not rolling it out because it is using too much power when you use face unlock. Maybe this is the reason why Google is still unable to roll out this feature in recent pixel updates. Hop Google will try to fix this issue as soon as possible.
