New references in iOS 27.2 beta 2 show Apple is still actively developing the feature, internally called AutoLock. The code reveals the feature uses multiple signals to detect theft and includes safeguards like biometric authentication, location-based checks, and a backoff mechanism to prevent false positives.
“The code also suggests AutoLock uses a voting system in which a potential theft signal can request a lock, while safeguards such as biometrics, familiar locations, or certain app activities can veto it.”
