IOS 9 Lost Mode automatically turns on low power mode

lost-mode-ios-9

iOS 9 makes our iPhone, iPod or iPad smarter. It is not an unfounded statement, but it is a reality as shown by a new related to lost mode of our device. Until now, when we lost our smartphone and accessed Find my iPhone, we could find out where it was and perform some actions to recover it. iOS 9 adds more time so we can figure out where our device is.

How do you do it? Well, in a very simple and intelligent way. When we activate the lost mode from iCloud.com or from any other iOS device, the low power mode will be activated, which deactivates everything that is not necessary to work in even makes the iPhone, iPod or iPad lose performance to extend its autonomy. In the case of activating lost mode, it will most likely deactivate everything except the internet connection and GPS, although it probably only sends intermittent data to consume less power.

To activate the energy saving mode when losing our iPhone we don't have to configure anything, and that's the best. You can check it yourself: go to Find my iPhone from another iOS device or from icloud.com and set your device in lost mode. Next, touch the sleep button and you will see that the battery icon is in yellow, which, like we already explained in his day, it means that it is saving battery to last more hours.

To get your device out of lost mode, you just have to unlock it, but for this you will have to enter the unlock code (Touch ID does not work the first time). Right at the moment of unlocking it, the battery icon will stop being yellow, turning green if you have 21% to 100% battery or red if it is 20% or less.

Another interesting thing that I do not know if it was available before iOS 9 is that as soon as I put it in lost mode I have received two emails, one warning that my device had been put in lost mode and another telling me the address where you found it. Be that as it may, all security measures are small, but welcome.

    The last thing you comment on the two emails was already in iOS 8.4 at least, since it was stolen this summer and when I activated it I received the two emails that you indicate, the next day I recovered it since they turned it off inside an address and having The last location went to the Civil Guard to file a complaint and they recovered it
