Hey everyone! So, I dropped my iPhone while jogging on Sunday, and now the screen is totally shattered and unresponsive. The left side still works a bit, but the right side is acting up, randomly pressing buttons while I slept. To make things worse, this morning it told me I need to reset it! I'm freaking out—am I going to lose everything on my phone because of some security measure?

It sounds like you're in a tough spot! But honestly, you should definitely have a backup for moments like this. It's never a good idea to put all your eggs in one basket with just one device. If you get a new phone, make sure to set up iCloud or another backup service for the future!
First off, sorry to hear about your phone! It’s frustrating for sure. You can't really do anything until you get the new phone but keep your fingers crossed that the reset won't wipe everything. If it does, hopefully, you can recover important data from iCloud or whatever backup you might have.
Thanks, I'm hoping for the best! I've got some stuff backed up, so fingers crossed!
Yeah, I hear you. I just didn't have the time to think about backups with my work schedule. But I'll definitely be more careful moving forward!
