   • Overview
   • Turn on Stolen Device Protection
   • Turn off Stolen Device Protection

   With iOS 17.3 and later, you can use Stolen Device Protection to protect against the rare instance when someone has stolen your iPhone and knows your passcode. When you’re away from familiar locations like home or work, Stolen Device Protection prevents the person from performing critical device and Apple ID account operations (like changing your device passcode or Apple ID password) by requiring biometric authentication with Face ID or Touch ID with no passcode fallback.

   When Stolen Device Protection is turned on, more sensitive operations require a Security Delay: a successful Face ID or Touch ID, an hour wait, then an additional successful biometric authentication. Security Delay helps prevent someone from making changes to settings that can lock you out of your iPhone or Apple ID account. These measures help protect your device and account, and give you more time to turn on Lost Mode using the Find My app or Find Devices on iCloud.com.
