📰 The new feature will be able to detect when a phone is suddenly snatched from a user’s hands and immediately lock the screen. To identify potential theft, Apple plans to use the iPhone’s built-in accelerometer and analyze the stability of its wireless connection with an Apple Watch.
💰 The feature is designed to combat a common street theft tactic where thieves on motorcycles grab unlocked phones from pedestrians. According to Wired, an unlocked iPhone can sell for up to $1,000 on the black market – around five times more than a locked device.
🔜 Apple is expected to unveil the technology at WWDC, taking place June 8-12.
