A recent report suggested that iPhones were secretly communicating with each other in a way the police didn’t like. Now there’s a new answer to the mystery.
I had an android phone that always rebooted (due to bugs) and it’s something that you don’t really want unless it’s vital to hide stuff from forensic investigators
When the phone is in “after reboot” status, absolutely nothing works, no email, no instant messaging and so on
I wish this was an option somewhere on my android. I have to use the scheduled off/on instead but this can be easily disabled.
I sometimes catch my Motorola doing that at night, sometimes it even updates.
Graphene OS has this after 18 hours I think and Calyx I think has it after 48.
On Calyx you can choose the time (between 1h and 72h)
Graphene too, but i think i heard calyx default was 72h and graphene default of 18h
You can do it on GrapheneOS if you have a Pixel phone
I have a Xiaomi with no Snapdragon, so alternatives for my phone
Root and use something like Tasker or Automate
My pixel 6 doesn’t “reboot” but every few hrs the lock screen changes to needing the pin code
Not the same thing since this the device is still partially decrypted.

Well, I’m not social and wife just calls me so it’s not a problem at all.
