"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.

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago (2 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days 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.

If you use your personal phone for work you can do with it whatever the hell you want, it's your phone. If work requires you to do something they can give you a phone in which tondo that

My primary phone is a corporate phone, so no.

I use an eSIM to have my personal phone number and the work stuff is in a container.

GrapheneOS is not a custom ROM

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days 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.

Android is already disabling fingerprint reader every 72 hours. So what's the difference?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

The encryption key of the device storage is kept in memory while in AFU state for practical reasons, you don't want to wait for the encryption key to be generated everytime you unlock the device, then wait for apps to restart and sync their data.

A reboot will discard that key from memory and return the phone back in BFU state, making it much more difficult to extract data from a device.

Some do. Enable "auto restart" if your phone has it.

[–] MSids 2 points 4 days ago

I believe this option just came to my Pixel 7 a few weeks back.
