New iOS Security Feature Makes It Harder for Police to Unlock Seized Phones
Everybody is reporting about a new security iPhone security feature with iOS 18: if the phone hasn’t been used for a few days, it automatically goes into its “Before First Unlock” state and has to be rebooted.
This is a really good security feature. But various police departments don’t like it, because it makes it harder for them to unlock suspects’ phones.
