Some of our readers will remember the GrayKey box that was used by law enforcement to unlock iPhones, the device no longer works since the release of Apple’s iOS 12.
The box has stopped to function with any device that is running iOS 12 and above, it could previously be used to unlock iPhones.
Apple has been working for some time to block devices like this from being used to unlock peoples iPhones. The problem is that whilst it may be fine for law enforcement to use these devices, they can also be used by criminals to get into peoples iPhones.
As yet there are no details on exactly how Apple has managed to stop these devices from working since the release of their latest iOS which landed in September.
