Apple is working on auto-lock feature for stolen iPhones

The biggest concern after a smartphone is stolen is the exposure of sensitive data. If a stolen device is unlocked, criminals can quickly access banking apps, personal messages, photos and other private information.

To solve this problem, it is reported that Apple is creating a smart security feature that can automatically lock the iPhone as soon as it is taken away from its owner.

How this feature can work

This technology will use iPhone’s in-built sensors to identify suspicious activity, including:

sudden jerk or rapid movement

pulling or snatching movements

unusual acts to theft

Once such activity is detected, the device will immediately lock itself, preventing unauthorized access and providing an additional layer of security to users.

Industry sources say the feature is inspired by security systems already in use on demo devices in Apple stores, but is being redesigned for real-world customer use.
