My face breaks cameras.

Problem solved.

Have never trusted putting bank account app on phone.

1. Use touch-id or face ID as much as possible, so that the times you have to enter a passcode are absolutely minimized. If you do have to type one in, do so in a very secluded spot. It happens every now and then.

2. Don't hang around bars! Admittedly, there are many public places you can't avoid, but as above, if you HAVE to type in a passcode, do so in complete isolation. People who steal these are called "shoulder surfers". Of course, a very long passcode is harder to break if the phone is stolen "blind" (without stealing your passcode) but if they are recording, not just memorizing no matter the length.


So, the idea is to never use your passcode in a public spot. That's the entry point being discussed here.

This is the KEEP IT SIMPLE, STUPID (KISS) message.

A solution?
Apple is supporting hardware security keys with the very latest iOS and MacOS releases (of course). Worth looking into.

I am going to check this out.

More later. I want to keep this simple.

Try to back up your devices to a Mac, in case your iCloud password is stolen and your iCloud data erased. Dunno Apple's retention of data. The video sounded unsatisfied with this.

Put sensitive data on a thumb drive and lock it up/ put it in your wildfire evacuation kit.

More on request.
