#how to backup text messages on iphone

[news4nose]

If you have an iPhone, you can likely retrieve those deleted messages if you act quickly. Know how to get those deleted messages back.

[trivialbob]

Finally I cracked a phone screen. First time ever since I’ve had a smart phone. I’m careful about handling them, but something happened and I joined the crowd.

That phone still works. But it’s old and the cracks drive me nuts. A good excuse to buy a new phone. The old one I’ll keep for a backup.

Apple isn’t my brand. When phone shopping I sort of wish it was. You can pick which latest generation you want, with a small number of variations or sizes. 

I am sticking with Android. At my local phone store, that gave me a choice of multiple brands. Each branch has too many models for my taste. I understand iPhone 12 versus iPhone 13. Samsung A54 versus Samsung S21? Please...

So I set a price point and made an appointment with someone to help me. The guy was super nice. Phone shopping reminds me of laptop purchasing. Decide how much memory you want, select a screen size, and set a price range. The brand doesn’t matter much. That’s why the employee more or less shrugged his shoulders when I showed him the four similarly priced phones. It mattered little which one I chose.

So I picked one. I didn’t want to pay the store to transfer everything. The DIY process at home was easy and fairly fast. The only problem was I had to re-enter a lot of sign-on and password information. That was a pain. Luckily I had a source of all this information and didn’t need to re-set any passwords.

Now it’s 97% set up. I still have to tweak some apps. LIke the Ring doorbell app that keeps telling me someone is walking down my street--every 15 minutes, or the text messaging app that isn’t giving me sound notifications. Easy remedies, I’m sure, but I have to work, eat, sleep. Phone settings are an annoyance to me now.

Logging in to all the apps I might need to use on my backup ipad, I realised that to get 2 factor authorisation in Europe to log into or reinstall apps, I would need to receive texts sent to my Australian number. Seemingly simple. If my Australian SIM stays in the phone I can receive SMS messages only by paying Boost Mobile $3 per day to turn on roaming, according to their expert via chat (human, I think, she passed the Turing test). I don’t need roaming for calls or data, I’ll have the Orange ESIM for those.

This article https://www.smh.com.au/traveller/reviews-and-advice/how-to-deal-with-two-factor-authentication-when-you-re-overseas-20231023-p5eeb2.html

says you can turn on roaming in your phone, cellular data off (for your home SIM), and receive texts. The person in the shop where I picked up the spare Three UK SIM confirmed that this works for them in Europe with Telstra. Of course, no sending texts, or calls, or data. It may work with Boost too, since Boost is part of Telstra, or it may work with all telcos.

Then I found this https://support.apple.com/en-us/102545

I can forward and receive texts between any devices logged into my icloud account. Another reason I'll never leave Apple. I tried it with texts to/from my wifi-only ipad to Anne's phone (with Imsg disabled). My phone was sending/receiving the texts on the cellular network and forwarding them to the Ipad 1 metre away over the internet via icloud. It worked for both Imsg and SMS. So it should work with my phone (and SIM) in Australia and the ipad on cellular or wifi in 13000km away in Europe. I didn’t see this solution described on the interweb. It means buying Anne's new iphone before my trip and leaving my SIM in her old phone at home, locked, muted, connected to a charger. It does the relay between the Boost Mobile phone network and the icloud. This way I can send and receive texts and imsg to Australia on my own number, without concern for how roaming works with Boost.

So, 3 solutions to receive texts on my own number:

1. Pay Boost to roam (cheap really, at $3 per day). I can turn on roaming in the Boost app if I need it.

2. Turn on roaming in my phone to receive texts, on my home SIM.

3. Use Apple text forwarding to send and receive texts.

1 and 2 involve taking my home SIM to Europe, 3 means leaving it in Australia, so I need to decide before I leave.

“Password1234”: Tulsi Gabbard’s Login

“Password1234”: How Tulsi Gabbard’s Login Habits Nearly Triggered a Hawaiian Missile Crisis 2.0

The National Security Threat of Reusing Your Ex-Boyfriend’s Name As a Password When “Aloha” Meets “Access Denied” In a shocking exposé that shook no one except the IT guy named Carl, The Daily Beast revealed that Tulsi Gabbard—a congresswoman, veteran, spiritual warrior, and occasional surfer—had apparently been using passwords that could be cracked by a caffeinated squirrel with an iPhone 4. According to leaked reports, her online security strategy was a combination of horoscope advice, yoga poses, and pure vibes. And yet, somehow, the nation remained standing. So we ask the vital question: What happens when the nuclear codes are one password reset question away from “What was your first pet’s name?” “She thought two-factor authentication meant having a backup horoscope.” — Ron White Let’s dive into the browser history of this satirical scandal.

“Tulsi2020!” Isn’t Just a Campaign Slogan, It’s Also Her Netflix Password

Gabbard’s Surfboard Contains More Encryption Than Her Laptop Tulsi Gabbard ran for president in 2020. Apparently, she also ran out of original password ideas in the same year. According to a cybersecurity leak no one asked for, Gabbard used “Tulsi2020!” across at least seven platforms—including MyFitnessPal, Dropbox, LinkedIn, and a suspicious site called “WarriorMonkDating.com.” What’s worse? She added the exclamation point thinking it was military-grade encryption. “It’s like putting a sticker over a webcam and calling it cybersecurity,” said retired NSA analyst and part-time laser tag champion Ron Skelton.

The Yoga of Password Management: Sun Salutations and Synced Devices

Sources close to Gabbard say she once attended a cybersecurity retreat in Maui, where instead of encryption, participants were taught to breathe deeply while entering their debit card numbers into public Wi-Fi. She later described it as “a transformative experience where I learned to align my chakras and my bank logins.” One witness described Gabbard’s “password flow” routine: First, she logs in with “namaste123” Then does downward dog while waiting for two-factor authentication And finally logs out by whispering “Aloha” to the server

The Cybercrime Wave: Russian Hackers, Meet “Password1234”

By 2017, her accounts were part of a larger leak that included over 3 billion records. Her contribution to this vast archive of human carelessness? Password: Tulsi123 Backup Password: Password1234 Security Question: “What’s your favorite color?” Answer: “YES” “It’s the cybersecurity equivalent of leaving your keys in your car with a note that says ‘Steal me, but with love,’” explained digital security expert Cliff “BitByte” Hernandez.

Gmail, Glam, and Glitches: Tulsi’s Digital Footprint is Wearing Flip-Flops

Among the compromised accounts was her Gmail, which—according to leaked metadata—was 70% promotional emails, 20% requests to appear on obscure podcasts, and 10% fan mail written entirely in binary. One intern who sorted through the compromised messages said: “There were multiple drafts of her resignation letter, all saved as ‘resignation_final_FINAL_FOR_REAL.docx’”

Exclusive: Her Two-Factor Authentication Was a Friendship Bracelet

Tech insiders were horrified to discover Tulsi’s idea of 2FA wasn’t a confirmation code—it was “texting her cousin Jaya to see if it was really her logging in.” On multiple occasions, hackers were stopped not by firewalls but by confusion when Jaya replied, “Is this for the yoga class or the kombucha group chat?” “Her defense strategy relied heavily on poor communication,” one cybersecurity consultant laughed while installing malware protection for his mom.

Even Her iCloud Had a Tan

A trove of iCloud data included: 400 nearly identical selfies from the Senate gym A playlist titled “Legislative Bangers” Several videos of her dog doing warrior poses next to a salt lamp According to unverified rumors, a hacker group named “404Bros” tried to ransom the data, but after seeing the contents, sent a formal apology and a $15 iTunes gift card.

LinkedIn Recommendations Written by... Herself

One of the strangest discoveries in the leak? Tulsi had endorsed herself on LinkedIn for: Strategic Visioning Yogic Thought Leadership Military Telepathy Surf Diplomacy “That’s not even a real thing,” said career coach Sheila Plonk.“But I’d still hire her for the vibe.”

Ancestral Passwords and a Trail of Spiritual Cookies

Insiders say Gabbard once consulted her past-life regression therapist for password inspiration. She emerged from the session convinced her soul password was “CleopatraLives9.” She later told “Stars & Data Protection Weekly”:“We must be as secure in our online lives as we are in our truth. Unless Mercury is in retrograde, then all bets are off.”

“Don’t Blame Me, I’m a Vet” Becomes New Security Phrase

Tulsi’s go-to deflection when asked about her weak passwords?“I served this country, dammit. Let me have one unencrypted yoga blog.” Critics note this is the digital equivalent of a politician speeding through a red light and shouting, “I was in ‘The Amazing Race: Congress Edition’—I know what I’m doing.”

Eye Witness Account: Hacker Testimony from His Mom’s Basement

One teenage hacker who cracked her Dropbox said: “Honestly, I was trying to hack Roblox. But when I typed ‘Tulsi’ and ‘123,’ I accidentally got her Whole Foods receipts and a bunch of PDFs labeled ‘The Real Truth.’” He has since retired and now teaches online safety at a community center in Delaware.

The FBI’s Official Response: “We’re Too Tired for This”

An internal memo from the Bureau reportedly read: “We spent three weeks untangling this woman’s security habits. At one point, she used a Haiku as her encryption key.” Her defense?“Syllables are the safest language.”

Political Repercussions: Senators Now Forced to Change “Obama2024” to “Obama2025?”

Following the leak, Congress issued new password requirements: No campaign slogans No personal affirmations No references to enlightenment As one Republican aide lamented:“Guess I’ll have to change ‘ReaganLives’ to ‘TaxCutz4Life!’”

What the Funny People Are Saying

“Tulsi's passwords were so bad, even her spirit animal logged out.”— Sarah Silverman “Hackers were like, ‘We don’t want her emails. We just want her to stop using ‘Namaste69.’”— Dave Chappelle “Her Dropbox was 90% surfboard selfies and 10% blurry screenshots of UFOs.”— Trevor Noah “I haven’t seen this many security holes since my grandma’s knitting project.”— Jerry Seinfeld “At this point, she’s just daring China to log in.”— Chris Rock

Her Yoga App is Still Logged In on Eight Public Devices

Eyewitnesses at a Honolulu smoothie bar confirmed they could still access Tulsi’s meditation schedule, her list of mantras, and a half-written memoir titled “Shiva, Surfing & Senate Committees.” “She’s logged in on the juicer,” one barista sighed.“We know when she’s late to Pilates. The blender just starts chanting.”

Final Thoughts: It’s Not Just About Tulsi—It’s About Us

Let’s not throw our encryption stones from glass iPhones. Who among us hasn’t: Reused a password from 8th grade? Used their dog’s name and added “123”? Logged into Wi-Fi named “FBI Surveillance Van”? Tulsi’s mistakes are a national metaphor: We all want to be free spirits until someone hacks our Hulu queue.

Public Opinion Poll: What Do Voters Think?

Conducted by Spintaxi Institute for Hilarious Policy Studies“Which of the following would make a stronger password than Tulsi’s current one?” “MyExSucks42” – 37% “!@$%&” – 22% “IamTheRealPOTUS” – 18% “Password1234ButWithVibes” – 13% “HunterBidenLaptop2025” – 10%

Actionable Advice: From SpinTaxi’s Chief Tech Guru, Bleepy VonFirewall

1. Never reuse passwords. Even if they contain the word “chakra.”2. Don’t rely on your cousin for 2FA unless she’s a Navy SEAL or works at Apple.3. Your ex’s nickname is not secure just because you added a symbol.4. Enlightenment is not a firewall.5. If your password is a pun, you’ve already been hacked.

Conclusion: What Have We Learned?

We’ve learned that no matter how confident, intelligent, or mystically inclined you are, the moment you type “Tulsi2020!” into seven websites, you are officially the cybersecurity version of wearing socks with sandals. But in a world where digital threats grow daily, Tulsi’s spiritual approach to password management is a gentle reminder:The only thing worse than hackers… is hubris. And now, if you’ll excuse us, we have to go change our Netflix login from “SpinTaxiRocks69.”

Mobile Security: Protecting Users from Phishing, Malware, and Data Breaches

Mobile phones have become a means of communication that has become an integral part of our life, whether it is related to banking or sharing on social media. This excessive use only makes mobile devices the primary victims of these cyber attacks, which range from phishing to malware infections and data breaches. It is important to protect yourself from these threats, and cyber security courses are an excellent investment in staying ahead of hackers. Let's dive into the risks and explore how users can safeguard their mobile security.

The Growing Threat of Mobile Cyber Attacks

Phishing Attacks: Deceptive Tactics to Steal Your Data

Phishing remains one of the most dominant cyber threats on mobile devices. The criminals steal sensitive information like passwords and credit card information using fraud emails or text messages or fake websites. Mobile phishing attacks are effective since individuals are more likely to click on links without confirming their authenticity.

How to Protect Yourself:

Never click on links from unknown sources.

Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) for added security.

Verify URLs before filling out personal data.

Take courses in cyber security to learn sophisticated phishing detection.

Malware: The Silent Invader

Malware can enter your mobile device via malicious apps, infected websites, or misleading downloads. Once on your device, malware can snatch personal data, monitor your actions, or even hold your device for ransom (ransomware). Mobile malware is becoming ever more sophisticated and is often presented as legitimate apps.

Download apps only from official stores like Google Play or the Apple App Store.

Check app permissions before installing.

Use a reputable mobile antivirus software.

Keep your operating system and apps updated to patch vulnerabilities.

Data Breaches: Your Information at Risk

Data breaches are a case in which hackers infiltrate a company's storage and obtain sensitive user information. Users' personal information, payment details, and even biometric information are leaked and stolen, making way for identity theft and financial fraud.

Protecting Yourself:

Use unique and strong passwords on various accounts.

Keep an eye on your bank and credit card statements regularly.

Turn on fingerprint or face ID when possible.

Learn about mobile security through cyber security courses to keep abreast of the latest protective measures.

Best Practices for Mobile Security

Avoid Public Wi-Fi Networks

Public Wi-Fi is a hotspot for hackers who use man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks to intercept your data. If you must use public Wi-Fi, consider using a VPN to encrypt your connection.

Enable Remote Wipe and Find My Device

In case your mobile device is lost or stolen, having remote wipe enabled can prevent unauthorized access to your personal data. Use services like Google's Find My Device or Apple's Find My iPhone to track and secure your phone remotely.

Disable Bluetooth and NFC When Not in Use

Cybercriminals can take advantage of the vulnerabilities in Bluetooth and NFC to access your device without permission. Turning them off when not in use reduces this risk.

Back Up Your Data Regularly

A backup ensures you do not lose important information in case of a cyber attack or failure of your device. You can use cloud storage or an external hard drive to keep your files safe.

Why You Should Consider a Cyber Security Course

With the rapid evolution of mobile threats, knowledge in cyber security can be a game changer. You can learn by enrolling in cyber security courses and:

Understand modern cyber threats and their prevention.

Learn ethical hacking techniques to test mobile security.

Gain insights into mobile security frameworks and best practices.

Enhance your career prospects in the cybersecurity domain.

Conclusion

With mobile devices dominating our daily lives, securing them is now more important than ever. It ranges from avoiding phishing scams to protecting against malware and data breaches. Users need to take proactive measures to ensure their safety. Taking cyber security courses is a smart step toward gaining expertise in mobile security and protecting personal and professional data. Stay informed, stay secure!

How to Spy on Someone's Phone Without Access

The increasing integration of technology into our daily lives has brought about various privacy concerns and curiosity around topics like monitoring someone’s mobile phone activity. With smartphones carrying much of our personal and professional information, the idea of remotely spying on someone’s phone without access has intrigued many. While this practice may raise significant ethical and legal questions, there are several methods available, both legal and illegal, for accomplishing this task.

This blog delves into the top five ways to spy on someone’s phone without access, explains how spy apps can help, investigates the possibility of using phone numbers to spy, and explores some alternative and ethical approaches to addressing your concerns.

1. Top 5 Ways to Spy on Someone's Phone Without Access

While there are various methods to spy on someone’s phone remotely, the effectiveness and legality of these methods vary. Here are five of the most commonly known ways:

a. Spy Apps

Spy apps are one of the most popular methods for remotely monitoring someone’s phone activity. These applications allow users to track activities such as text messages, call logs, GPS location, and even social media usage. The catch? Some apps require initial installation on the target phone, but a select few boast of remote installation features. Many spy apps run in stealth mode, meaning they work without the user of the phone knowing.

Examples of well-known spy apps include:

HackersList: Often used by parents to monitor their children, HackersList allows users to remotely access texts, calls, locations, and social media activity. However, it usually requires one-time physical access to the phone.

FlexiSPY: Known for its powerful tracking capabilities, FlexiSPY offers advanced features like call recording and live phone monitoring. While some features are accessible remotely, the app still often requires installation on the target phone.

While spy apps can offer powerful tracking options, you must understand their legal implications. Using these apps without permission from the phone’s owner is illegal in many jurisdictions.

b. Cloud Backup Exploitation

Another method to spy on someone’s phone without direct access is by exploiting cloud backup services like iCloud for iPhones or Google Drive for Android devices. These services store backups of a phone’s data, such as messages, call history, and photos. If you have the login credentials for the person's cloud account, you may be able to access the data remotely.

However, two-factor authentication and other security measures often limit this approach. It may not be as reliable or accessible as spy apps, and there are ethical and legal concerns associated with using someone’s cloud account without their permission.

c. Phishing Attacks

Phishing attacks involve sending fake emails, messages, or links that appear legitimate but are designed to capture personal information, such as passwords. If someone falls for a phishing attack, the attacker could gain access to the victim's phone or cloud account without ever touching the device.

This method, while effective in some cases, is illegal and highly unethical. Phishing violates privacy laws, and using it to spy on someone’s phone can result in legal consequences.

d. SIM Card Swapping

SIM swapping is a technique used to intercept communication by gaining control of the victim's phone number. By tricking the mobile service provider, the attacker gets the victim's SIM card reissued and can then access phone calls, text messages, and even two-factor authentication codes.

This method is typically more advanced and is often used in fraud and cyberattacks. It requires specific technical knowledge and is considered illegal in most cases.

e. Network Monitoring

If you have access to the same Wi-Fi network as the target phone, you could potentially use network monitoring tools to spy on internet traffic. Tools like packet sniffers can capture data sent over the network, potentially revealing the content of messages, browsing history, or other data transmitted online.

However, network monitoring requires considerable technical expertise and may not provide complete access to all phone activity. Additionally, spying on someone’s phone through this method without their consent is illegal.

2. How Spy Apps Can Help You Spy on Someone's Phone Without Access

Spy apps are often marketed as the ultimate solution for spying on someone's phone without direct access. While some apps still require brief physical access to install the software, there are exceptions where remote installation is advertised. Here’s how spy apps work and how they can help you spy on someone’s phone remotely:

Data Tracking: Spy apps collect data from the target phone, including text messages, call logs, GPS locations, and even social media activity. This data is then transmitted to the app’s online dashboard, where you can access it remotely.

Remote Access: Some spy apps provide the ability to track the phone without the user ever knowing. They operate in "stealth mode," running quietly in the background while collecting data.

Geofencing and GPS Tracking: For those who want to monitor location, spy apps often include geofencing features that send alerts when the phone moves outside of a specific area. This is commonly used for parental monitoring.

However, even though spy apps can be effective tools for remote monitoring, it’s essential to understand the legal boundaries. Using spy apps without the phone owner’s consent can lead to severe legal consequences, especially if you’re tracking an adult.

3. How to Spy on Someone's Phone Using Only Their Number

One of the most alluring myths is the idea that you can spy on someone’s phone using only their phone number. While it is possible to gain access to some information with just a phone number, the extent of what you can do is limited.

Here are some methods that involve using a phone number to track phone activity:

Social Media Tracking: In some cases, using a phone number can help track social media accounts linked to it. If you enter the phone number in a platform like Facebook or Instagram, you might be able to find the associated profile and see public posts or activity.

Phone Location Services: Some apps claim to be able to track a phone’s location using just the number. These services are generally unreliable, and in most cases, they require additional data or consent from the target phone’s owner.

SIM Card Fraud (SIM Swapping): As mentioned earlier, SIM swapping is one way to take control of a phone number. Once a criminal has swapped the SIM, they can use the phone number to access various accounts. However, this is illegal and complex.

While spying on a phone using just the number may seem easy, in reality, it’s far from practical or reliable without further access or technical expertise.

4. Remote Spy Tools: Spy on Someone's Phone Without Touching It

Some tools and methods allow for remote monitoring without needing physical access to the phone at all. These tools often work over the internet or by exploiting cloud storage and backup systems.

iCloud and Google Accounts: As previously mentioned, accessing someone’s iCloud or Google account can allow you to view their backups. You can monitor messages, photos, and more if you have login credentials for these accounts.

Remote Installation Spyware: Some spy apps claim that they can be installed remotely by sending a link or through email. Once the user clicks the link, the spyware is installed on their phone without needing any physical access.

Keylogging: Keylogging software records every keystroke on the phone, sending logs to the remote monitor. Keylogging can be done remotely by infecting the phone with malware, which is illegal and unethical.

While remote spy tools can work in some instances, they are generally illegal to use without the target's consent and are not foolproof.

5. Challenges You May Face When Trying to Spy on Someone's Phone

While the allure of spying on someone's phone may seem enticing, there are many challenges you will face in the process, including:

Legal Risks: Spying on someone's phone without their consent is illegal in many places. Even if the intent is to protect someone, such as monitoring a child or employee, you may face criminal charges or lawsuits if discovered.

Technological Barriers: Advanced security measures like two-factor authentication, encryption, and biometric locks make it difficult to spy on someone's phone without physical access or their knowledge.

Reliability of Spy Tools: Not all spy apps or tools work as advertised. Many can be scams, fail to deliver the promised results or stop working due to software updates.

Ethical Dilemmas: The ethics of spying on someone’s phone without their knowledge is highly debatable. Even in situations like monitoring a loved one, this action could lead to feelings of mistrust and damaged relationships.

6. Alternatives to Spying on Someone's Phone Without Access

Instead of resorting to unethical or illegal means to spy on someone's phone, there are alternative approaches that are both legal and ethical:

Open Communication: One of the best ways to address concerns about someone's phone use is through open and honest communication. Whether it's with a partner, child, or employee, talking about your worries can often resolve the issue without needing to spy.

Parental Control Apps: If you're a parent concerned about your child's safety, consider using legitimate parental control apps that are transparent and designed specifically for monitoring with consent.

Employee Monitoring Software: If you're an employer wanting to track productivity, use legal employee monitoring software that is transparent and compliant with workplace laws.

Seeking Professional Help: In situations involving trust issues, whether in relationships or at work, it may be better to seek professional guidance, such as therapy or mediation, instead of violating privacy.

Conclusion

Spying on someone's phone without access is a complex, legally risky, and ethically questionable endeavor. While various methods such as spy apps, phishing, cloud backup exploitation, and network monitoring may offer ways to do so, it’s crucial to understand that these approaches may have severe consequences.

The better alternative is to seek legal, ethical solutions, such as transparent monitoring tools or communication, that respect privacy and maintain trust in relationships. Remember, the goal should always be to find a solution that ensures safety and trust without crossing ethical lines.

What to do if your phone gets stolen

If your phone falls into the hands of criminals, do not panic. Here is how to protect your data.

June 2, 2021

If you can’t find your phone, don’t panic. Exhaust your good options — maybe you misplaced it or lent it to someone, or buried it under some papers — and then, unfortunately, assume it was stolen. If you read our post on how to theft-proof your smartphone and data and followed the tips, then you’ve safeguarded your information and can restore it on a new phone. But even if you didn’t prepare in advance, you can reduce the damage.

Table of Contents:

Best-case scenario

Worst-case scenario

Have your SIM card blocked

Warn your relatives and friends

Block stolen smartphone

Unlink bank cards

Block the smartphone’s IMEI number

What’s next?

Contact the police

Change your passwords

Restore your data

Cheer up

Best-case scenario

Your phone’s screen was locked when it went missing, the data on it is encrypted, and the SIM card is PIN-protected. In that case:

Use the Find My Device (Android) or Find My (iOS) feature to mark the phone as lost and have the device display an on-screen message with the number of a friend or relative who can contact you in case someone honest finds the device;

After waiting as long as you’re comfortable on the first step, remotely delete all data on the device and contact your operator to block the SIM card;

Buy a new smartphone and restore your data from a backup copy.

We also recommend staying vigilant after the theft. Thieves often take advantage of that contact information, especially with more expensive devices, and use social engineering to trick the owner of the stolen device into revealing the password for their Google or Apple ID account. If successful, they can unlink the device from the account and make more money by selling the phone whole than by disassembling it and selling the parts.

In short, treat all texts and calls related to a stolen phone with the utmost suspicion, and do not enter or reveal your Google account or Apple ID credentials.

Worst-case scenario

If the smartphone landed in the wrong hands and it is not protected, possibly not even by a screen lock, then time is of the essence. The first thing you need is another phone from which to make several calls. Ask store or restaurant staff to use their phone, or flag down a cab and borrow the driver’s phone.

Block your SIM card

Your first call is to your carrier. Tell the support rep that you lost your SIM card and ask them to block it. Once the SIM card is blocked, the thief will no longer be able to impersonate you (call from your number or receive a text message with a verification code for changing a password or confirming a transaction, for example).

Warn relatives and friends

Your second call should be to a friend or relative. Explain that your phone was stolen, and ask them to warn mutual contacts that they might get calls or messages from your number with requests for money or maybe some questions, all of which they should ignore. You might want to ask them to post a warning on social media if you share many friends there.

Block smartphone

You will need access to the Internet to block your stolen smartphone. If at all possible, do so on a secure device; you will be entering your password.

First, log in to your Google or Apple ID account. If you are logging in from someone else’s device, and you have two-factor authentication set up, that may be difficult. Obviously, you can’t get a verification text or open a mobile authenticator app; your phone is gone. Android users can change the password without text message verification. If that applies to you, you will need to enter one of the backup codes you received when setting up two-factor authentication. iPhone users can recover account access by having a verification code sent to a trusted phone number or device.

Once you have logged in to your Google or Apple ID account, here’s what to do:

Find your missing smartphone in the device list under Security (for Android phones) or the Find My iPhone app (for iPhones) and find the missing smartphone in the list of devices;

Note the location of the smartphone on the map. If the phone is on and geolocation is active, its location icon should appear. However, even if the thief’s path is clear, do not try to chase them. Rather, ask the police for help;

Select Lost Mode. The system will offer to enter a message for the lock screen and a backup number to contact you. Your smartphone will now display that message, and nothing else. If the phone was simply misplaced, not stolen, the finder will be able to call you. Watch out for phishing messages and calls; criminals may pose as support reps and contact you to try to get the account password;

If your device contains important and sensitive information, consider the drastic measure of erasing it remotely. However, keep in mind that option is irrevocable — and also means giving up the ability to locate the phone remotely.

Unlink bank cards

When you block your smartphone with Find My or Find My Device, respectively, Apple or Google may suggest unlinking any associated cards, but in case it doesn’t, unlink bank cards from your device manually in the account settings. Unless they were stolen along with the phone, you don’t need to block the cards.

For Android devices:

Sign in to your Google account;

In the Payments & subscriptions section, select Payment settings;

Remove your cards.

For iPhone:

Sign in to your Apple ID account;

In the Devices section, find the missing iPhone and select Remove all cards.

Block the smartphone’s IMEI number

In some countries, in addition to having the SIM card blocked, you can add a stolen phone’s identification number (IMEI) to the carrier’s blocklist. To do that, you need to give the carrier this number. If you have the box in which the phone came, you can find the number on it.

Android lets you use the Find your phone feature to find the IMEI: Click on the encircled “i” next to the image of your phone and the IMEI code will pop up.

iPhone users can find theirs at appleid.apple.com by signing in with the Apple ID used on the stolen device, scrolling down to Devices, and selecting the iPhone to see its IMEI.

In theory, once the carrier adds the IMEI to the blocklist, the smartphone will not be able to connect to the mobile network even with a different SIM card. This feature works in the United States, the United Kingdom, Turkey, Latvia and certain Latin American countries.

What’s next?

Once you’ve taken prudent steps to protect yourself and your data, it’s time to get down to mitigating other potential consequences.

Contact the police

Report the theft, giving police details such as carrier and phone number. However slim, there is still a chance to get your smartphone back. Sometimes phones get returned even after being missing for years.

Change your passwords

Change as many passwords as you can in your apps and mobile browser. Once you’ve replaced the passwords, set up two-factor authentication.

Restore your data

If you enabled backup on the device while you still had it, then you will be able to recover all information, down to text messages, on your new smartphone.

Here are the steps to do this on Android and iPhone.

Cheer up

The loss of a smartphone certainly carries serious stress and is a threat to your data. However, if you follow the steps above and back up your data in advance, you can cut your losses. Do not despair because your gadget was lost or stolen — your personal safety is the top priority.

Protecting Your Used Phone from Malware and Viruses

In today's digital age, our smartphones have become an essential part of our lives. They store our personal data, connect us with friends and family, and even serve as our digital wallets. However, this increased reliance on mobile devices makes them attractive targets for cybercriminals seeking to steal information, infect devices with malware, or gain unauthorized access. When you buy a used phone, it's crucial to take steps to protect it from malware and viruses. In this comprehensive guide, we will explore how you can safeguard your used phone and your data.

I. Understand the Risks

Awareness is Key: The first step in protecting your used phone from malware and viruses is understanding the risks. Cyber threats continually evolve, and knowing what you're up against is essential.

Types of Threats: Malware, short for malicious software, includes viruses, trojans, worms, ransomware, and spyware. Each poses a unique threat to your device and data.

II. Secure Your Phone's Operating System

Keep Your OS Up to Date: Regularly updating your phone's operating system (OS) is vital. Manufacturers release updates to patch vulnerabilities and enhance security.

Use a Secure Password/PIN: Secure your phone with a strong password or PIN. Avoid easily guessable options like "1234" or "password."

Enable Biometric Authentication: Whenever possible, enable biometric authentication methods like fingerprint or facial recognition for added security.

Lock Screen Notifications: Configure your lock screen settings to hide sensitive information from prying eyes.

III. Install and Update Apps Securely

Download from Trusted Sources: Stick to official app stores like Google Play Store (Android) or the Apple App Store (iOS). Avoid sideloading apps from unverified sources.

Check App Permissions: Review app permissions before installation. Be cautious of apps that request excessive access to your device's functions or data. Update Apps Regularly:

Keep your apps updated to ensure you have the latest security patches and bug fixes. Consider App Reputation:

Read reviews and check the reputation of an app before downloading it. Be cautious if an app has a low rating or a history of security issues. IV. Utilize Security Apps and Features

Install Antivirus and Security Software:

Consider installing reputable antivirus and security apps to scan for and remove malware. Many options are available for both Android and iOS. Find My Device or Find My iPhone:

Enable tracking features like "Find My Device" (Android) or "Find My iPhone" (iOS) to locate your phone in case it's lost or stolen. Remote Wipe and Lock:

Ensure your device allows remote wipe and lock capabilities to protect your data if your phone is lost or stolen. V. Secure Your Network

Use Secure Wi-Fi Networks:

Avoid connecting to public Wi-Fi networks without password protection, as they are more susceptible to cyberattacks. Enable VPN (Virtual Private Network):

Consider using a VPN when connecting to public Wi-Fi. A VPN encrypts your internet connection, making it more challenging for hackers to intercept your data. Bluetooth and NFC Security:

Turn off Bluetooth and NFC when not in use, as they can be used for unauthorized data transfer. VI. Be Wary of Phishing

Phishing Awareness:

Be cautious of emails, text messages, or social media messages from unknown sources or containing suspicious links. Phishing attempts often trick users into revealing personal information. Verify Sources:

Verify the legitimacy of requests for personal information or financial transactions by contacting the source directly using official contact information. Use Two-Factor Authentication (2FA):

Enable 2FA for your email and important accounts to add an extra layer of security. VII. Secure Your Data

Regular Backups:

Regularly back up your data to a secure location, such as a cloud service or an external device. This ensures you can recover your data in case of malware or device loss. Data Encryption:

Enable device encryption to protect your data from unauthorized access. Both Android and iOS offer encryption options. VIII. Educate Yourself

Stay Informed:

Keep up to date with the latest cybersecurity threats and best practices. Awareness is a powerful tool against cyberattacks. Online Resources:

Utilize online resources and articles to learn more about cybersecurity and how to protect your device effectively. IX. Secure Disposal of Old Devices

Factory Reset:

Before selling or disposing of your old phone, perform a factory reset to erase all data. Be sure to remove your Google or Apple account from the device. Consider Recycling or Reselling:

If you're not using your old phone, consider recycling it through a reputable program or selling it to a trusted buyer. X. Ongoing Vigilance

Regular Scanning:

Periodically run security scans to check for malware or vulnerabilities. Stay Skeptical:

Be cautious of unsolicited offers, pop-up ads, and emails claiming to be from reputable sources. Verify their legitimacy before taking any action. Conclusion

Protecting your used phone from malware and viruses is essential in safeguarding your personal data and privacy. By following the comprehensive guide outlined above, you can significantly reduce the risks associated with cyber threats. Remember that cybersecurity is an ongoing process that requires vigilance and regular updates to keep your device and data safe from harm. Taking these proactive steps will help you enjoy the benefits of your used phone with confidence and peace of mind.

Here's a 1 year update on my iPhone gripes

Teams treats photos weird. If I want to attach a picture to a message in teams I need to write the message first. If I don't, I will end up lagging out the teams app and the keyboard will be so laggy it's unusable

The picture format is weird. Take a picture in Teams: .jpg. take a picture in the camera app: proprietary apple format I have to convert later to shrink the file size down to fit in attachments

I keep getting hounded by the settings panel to set up Face ID, iPhone Backup, and Cloud Storage. I don't want Face ID. It is useless in a clean room when I'm wearing stuff on my face. I don't want to backup the phone. It's all pictures for work I've offloaded Into our database already. And I filled up the free cloud storage from said photos because I didn't know backup was on and clearing out said storage is going to be a hassle

The gesture controls are not great in nitrile gloves. A lot of apps want you to swipe from the edge to perform a function. Reply in teams, sort emails in outlook, that kind of thing. This is also how you go back with the navigation. I have sent so many wrong inputs trying to navigate before going back to using the back button at the top of the screen

The text engine for the keyboard is very stupid. It will not understand that a "b" or "v" in something like yesband is "yes and" with a mistyped space. It does not try and correct it and trying to put the cursor into the middle of a word is very tedious. Spacebar to scroll though text and fix small errors on Android is a feature I had no idea I used that much

Speaking of, you can't just tap on a piece of text to put the cursor in the middle of a word

But the magsafe was neat and I did make an arm band for it. It unfortunately didn't work as well as I hoped

List of all my complaints with iphones

i've never used an iphone. EVER. i have a company iphone now. this is a list of every single infuriating thing that i come across. when i get a chance im gonna upgrade this to the samsung equivalent they offer

organizing the home screen was a tedious and over complicated affair. shit kept moving on me and i had to pad out the home screen with junk just to push all the high use apps to the lower right. LET ME HAVE HOLES IN MY HOME SCREEN.

i cant send files over bluetooth. WHAT?!?!?! Airdrop only works with Macs. I can pare my phone with my PC over bluetooth but sending files is forbidden......unless i have a mac. then i can use airdrop

i dont like the UI. i want the back button at the bottom. not double tap the accessibility dot to bring the screen down so i can reach the back button you put at the TOP of the screen.

so far the only nice thing about this phone is that its USB-C so i can use my existing chargers because NONE CAME IN THE BOX and i may be able to hack togeather a magsafe thingy to hold my phone though the bunny suit. this list will update as i run into shit
