  🚀 plasma-face-unlock v1.0.0

  Welcome to the very first release of plasma-face-unlock! It brings Face ID to KDE Plasma: look at the screen and it unlocks. The lock screen, sudo and admin prompts can all take your face instead of a password.

  

  Highlights

  • Unlock the lock screen with your face
  • sudo and admin prompts
  • A bubble like Face ID
  • Photos do not get in
  • Packages for Arch, Fedora, Debian and Kubuntu

  ☕ Support plasma-face-unlock

  If plasma-face-unlock is useful to you, you can buy me a coffee. It keeps these tools going. Found a bug or have an idea? Tell me in the issues.
