Although
this potential for data loss may sound scary, it’s highly unlikely a
significant other or child would accidentally erase all your data.
The
reason being because after the fifth failed password attempt, iOS
requires a 1-minute timeout before you can try typing a password in
again. After the sixth try, you get a 5-minute timeout. After the seventh, 15 minutes, and so on and so forth.
This
means it would take more than 3 hours to enter 10 incorrect passcodes.
The only person spending that much time probably has bad intentions,
meaning you’ll want your personal data to be erased. Here’s how to turn
the setting on.
These are The Following Steps:-
Step-2. Scroll down to Touch ID & Passcode.
Step-3. Enter your passcode.
Step-4. Toggle Erase data setting to the on position.
