iOS 26.4 aktiverar Stöldskydd automatiskt för alla iPhone-användare

Starting with iOS 26.4, Stolen Device Protection will be enabled by default and turned on for all iPhone users. Stolen Device Protection adds extra security in case of physical &zwnj;iPhone&zwnj; theft. Apple implemented Stolen Device Protection back in 2023 after reports about a new &zwnj;iPhone&zwnj; theft method. Thieves would spy on an intended victim to learn their passcode, then steal the target's &zwnj;iPhone&zwnj;. With the passcode, criminals were able to empty bank accounts, access passwords, and turn off Find My. Stolen Device Protection requires additional authentication through Face ID or Touch ID to access certain &zwnj;iPhone&zwnj; features like the Passwords app, Lost mode in &zwnj;Find My&zwnj;, Safari purchases, and more. Some features are disabled entirely without authentication, while others have a one-hour security delay. Actions requiring &zwnj;Face ID&zwnj; or &zwnj;Touch ID&zwnj; to complete: Viewing/using passwords or passkeys saved in iCloud Keychain Applying for a new Apple Card Viewing an &zwnj;Apple Card&zwnj; virtual card Turning off Lost Mode Erasing all content and settings Taking certain Apple Cash and Savings actions in Wallet Using payment methods saved in Safari Using your &zwnj;iPhone&zwnj; to set up a new device These actions do not have a passcode backup, so you can't use a passcode to avoid using &zwnj;Face ID&zwnj; or &zwnj;Touch ID&zwnj;. Actions that have a 1-hour security delay, and require two biometric authentications: Changing your Apple ID password Updating select &zwnj;Apple ID&zwnj; account security settings, including adding or removing a trusted device, trusted phone number, Recovery Key, or Recovery Contact Changing your &zwnj;iPhone&zwnj; passcode Adding or removing &zwnj;Face ID&zwnj; or &zwnj;Touch ID&zwnj; Turning off &zwnj;Find My&zwnj; Turning off Stolen Device Protection Prior to iOS 26.4, Stolen Device Protection had to be enabled manually in the &zwnj;Face ID&zwnj; and Passcode section of the Settings app. There is an option to remove security delays when the &zwnj;iPhone&zwnj; is in a familiar location, which allows full functionality at home but protection when out and about. iOS 26.4 is limited to developers at the current time, but a public beta will be coming in the near future. Apple plans to release the update in the spring.Related Roundups: iOS 26, iPadOS 26Related Forum: iOS 26 This article, "iOS 26.4 Enables Stolen Device Protection by Default for All iPhones" first appeared on MacRumors.com Discuss this article in our forums
