"There is an apparently new iOS 18 security feature that reboots iPhones that haven’t been unlocked in a few days, frustrating police by making it harder to break into suspects’ iPhones

...

Apple added “inactivity reboot” code in iOS 18.1 that triggers iPhones to restart after they’ve been locked for four days"

I hope this gets added to Android.

[–] Dave@lemmy.nz 15 points 9 hours ago (3 children)

Its in GrapheneOS(an android custom ROM) if you're that way inclined.

[–] chemicalwonka@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago) (1 children)

GrapheneOS is not a custom ROM

[–] Dave@lemmy.nz 3 points 7 hours ago

I get that it's not actually ROM, but this is the normal term used. For example, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_custom_Android_distributions

This is a list of Android distributions, Android-based operating systems (OS) commonly referred to as Custom ROMs or Android ROMs, forked from the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) without Google Play Services included officially in some or all markets, yet maintained independent coverage in notable Android-related sources.

Emphasis mine.

Came here to say this

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 3 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Sadly I can't, need to keep the stock OS for work.

[–] Dave@lemmy.nz 4 points 8 hours ago

Ah, I don't use my personal phone for work stuff or my work phone for personal stuff. GrapheneOS also only supports Pixel phones.

[–] Brkdncr@lemmy.world 8 points 10 hours ago (3 children)

Wait I thought we were supposed to hate on iphones here.

[–] lousyd@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 10 hours ago

Yeah, I debated whether to post it or not. = )

iPhones suck. This is still an objective improvement to them and currently an advantage over Android. Hatred and blind hatred aren't the same.

That's super cool! I guess I should've expected that. Still unfortunately means you need to be a Pixel owner and to have installed a non-default OS, which is an extreme minority of Android users – compared to iOS 18.1 blanketing every 12th-or-later-gen iPhone.

[–] dan@upvote.au 1 points 4 hours ago

Yeah... I hope that it becomes a standard part of Android one day.

Broken clock... Twice a day... ya know

[–] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

Last week it was theorized that iOS 18 would reboot after 24 hours if it lost connection from the internet. That would be even better, since it would fuck people trying to work around FindMy.

[–] lengau@midwest.social 1 points 55 minutes ago

Hopefully they've implemented it in a way that the phone can still get wiped before initial unlock.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

How do you mean trying to work around FindMy? Like phone thieves?

[–] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

Thieves, authorities, crazy ex, anyone.

FindMy will allow you to remotely secure or wipe the device. But the device needs to be online to get that request to lock or wipe from iCloud.
