- zarzavat 2y agoThis doesn't work if they steal it out your hand while it's unlocked.
- 4lun 2y agoSlight mitigation to this is you can add an automation via the Shortcuts app to be triggered when airplane mode is enabled, and set the actions to immediately lock your device and disable airplane mode Downside is that you need to manually disable the automation if you actually wish to use airplane mode (and also remember to re-enable it when done)
- NamTaf 2y agoI've set two automations: 1) When airplane mode is activated, lock the screen. 2) When airplane mode is activated, turn it back off. That'll give me the most opportunity to either track it and/or lock it down remotely. I can remember to disable the shortcut whenever I fly and need to enable it. If they pop my SIM (my provider doesn't use eSIMs...) then there's a PIN on it to prevent use in another device.
- mavhc 2y agoI assume apple has something similar to https://support.google.com/android/answer/15146908 https://support.google.com/android/answer/15146908 Theft Detection Lock uses AI, your device's motion sensors, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to detect if someone unexpectedly takes your device and runs away. If Theft Detection Lock detects that your device is taken from you, it automatically locks your device's screen to protect its content.
