iOS 17.3 will make iPhones harder to hack.

According to The Verge , Stolen Device Protection will make it more difficult for thieves to hijack users' Apple IDs and all the information stored on the device. Currently, the passcode is sufficient to access or change sensitive personal or financial data, but with iOS 17.3, thieves will need to use Face ID or Touch ID and it will take them an hour to make certain changes.

iOS 17.3 includes the Stolen Device Protection feature.

Although Apple hasn't announced a specific date for Stolen Device Protection, the company has been testing the feature in the iOS 17.3 beta since last December. This new security feature addresses a major vulnerability reported by the Wall Street Journal in February 2023, where thieves could easily block victims from accessing their Apple ID by memorizing their iPhone's lock screen passcode, which allows the passcode to be reset using the same passcode.

If Stolen Device Protection is enabled, users will have to use Face ID or Touch ID to perform tasks such as registering a new Apple Card, erasing the entire phone, or accessing iCloud Keychain. To do things like change the Apple ID password, add another face or fingerprint for biometric authentication, or turn off Find, users must wait an hour after authenticating with their face or fingerprint, then authenticate again with Face ID or Touch ID to make those changes unless they are in a frequently visited location such as home or work, where there is no delay.

Additionally, MacRumors reports that other upcoming features in iOS 17.3 include a new Collaborative Playlists option allowing multiple people to edit Apple Music playlists and react to songs with animated emojis, as well as a new Unity Bloom wallpaper to complement Apple's latest Black Unity watch band collection.
