Why 7 days? I'd like a feature to never allow any USB communication until I've unlocked my phone, and then to allow it only for as long as they remain continuously connected.
Or to activate this feature with 'Emergency Mode' (5 power button presses).
- CodeWriter23 8y agoThey can't because they deleted the headphone jack. Your earbuds would not function if Lightning was defaulted to off.
- tbyehl 8y agoSure they would, I'd just have to unlock after connecting them. Which seems like something I'd probably do anyways. Except I use Bluetooth headphones so I don't care about Lightning audio at all. Misplaced the stupid dongle within days of getting a jack-less iPhone...
- Rjevski 8y agoNot really. They could allow accessory protocols while disabling everything else. The only sensitive thing we care about is "usbmuxd" or whatever the protocol for iOS sync & backup is.
- Dylan16807 8y agoThat's not true, there's the large attack surface of those other protocols to worry about too.
- dolguldur 8y agoI concur, would be great if this feature could be enabled with 'Emergency Mode'.
- dingo_bat 8y agoThis is more or less what happens in android. The usb port is only enabled for charging, anything else requires you to unlock the phone.
