Does removing a device from Find My iPhone clear the passcode?

Asked By LostAndFound123 On

I lost my iPhone recently and didn't activate Lost Mode. I reset my Apple ID password to regain access to my data on another device, which removed my lost phone from being a trusted number. Before this, my phone could be tracked through my wife's Find My app, but now it's vanished from there. I'm concerned that the phone is no longer linked to my Apple ID, but I still have data on it. Has the passcode been removed from my lost phone?

Nope, the passcode hasn’t been removed. Just taking the phone off your account doesn’t make it usable for anyone else. If a finder gets your phone, they might try to reset it, but they won’t be able to access any of your data because it’s all encrypted. It’s best to keep the Activation Lock active so that it can't be easily used by someone else.

It's unlikely that your phone is fully untied from your Apple ID. The data is still on the device, and Activation Lock is probably still in place. This means that even if someone gets hold of your phone, they won't be able to unlock it unless they have your passcode or Apple ID credentials. So rest assured, they can't erase it or access your info without those details.
