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 supervised.
  • 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.
