Users of the World App will be the first to experience face recognition technology, according to Worldcoin. According to an announcement, the new function is a private 1:1 face comparison. That guarantees that the World App may only be accessed by the person who validated their World ID at an orb. Also, this step is taken to make sure that users who use the app for things like secure sign-in, online shopping, and financial transactions are more protected.
Approximately 6.7 million users have formally confirmed their “personhood” via one of Worldcoin’s iris-scanning orbs. And approximately 15 million individuals throughout the globe are utilizing the World App digital wallet at now, as reported by the company. People that have their eyes scanned to establish their identity and get a World ID are given <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/worldcoin-wld-price-prediction/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">WLD</a> tokens by Worldcoin.

Also, according to Worldcoin, the World App’s facial recognition feature is now in a trial program in several regions.

Furthermore, Worldcoin’s plan to improve its reputation among government authorities includes using face recognition to increase security. Launching in Poland, Austria, and Malaysia has helped Worldcoin gain momentum. But the initiative has also drawn investigation in Colombia and a few other nations. Worldcoin was charged with a violation of the personal data protection regulation last month by Colombia’s regulatory commission.
A temporary prohibition in Spain earlier this year was another blow for Worldcoin. By immediately ceasing to store and encrypt customers’ biometric data, Worldcoin sought to provide consumers with more “peace of mind” after the ban.
