Apple says it has no record of a successful spyware attack against any device running Lockdown Mode, the opt-in security feature it introduced in 2022. "We are not aware of any successful mercenary spyware attacks against a Lockdown Mode-enabled Apple device," an Apple spokesperson told TechCrunch. Lockdown Mode is available on the iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and dramatically restricts certain system features that are commonly exploited by mercenary spyware.

    I believe it, considering how many features are disabled in that mode.

      I’ve had it enabled for a month and the only thing I noticed missing was iMessage backgrounds.

        You don’t need to “notice”. You just need to read the documentation. https://support.apple.com/en-us/105120

          Yes, if you’d read the link you sent and tried it yourself, you’d notice that the documentation is severely incomplete, and only points out steps privacy-conscious users have already made
