Using Activation Lock on
iOS
devices

The Activation Lock feature on
iOS
devices allows users to protect their devices if they are lost or stolen. When the feature is enabled, the user must confirm the
Apple
ID and password to disable Find My
iPhone
, erase the device, or reactivate and use the device.
To manage the Activation Lock feature in
BlackBerry UEM
:
  • The device must be a supervised device running
    iOS
    7.1 or later.
  • The device must have an
    iCloud
    account configured.
  • The device must have Find My
    iPhone
    or Find My
    iPad
    enabled.
When a device is activated on
BlackBerry UEM
, Activation Lock is disabled by default. You can enable it for each device individually, or you can enforce it using the IT policy. When you enable Activation Lock,
BlackBerry UEM
stores a bypass code that you can use to clear the lock so that the device can be erased and reactivated without the user's
Apple
ID and password.
