Magnet Forensics builds tool to counter iPhone's 72-hour auto-reboot lock

Magnet Forensics, maker of the GrayKey phone-unlocking devices used by law enforcement, has developed GrayKey Preserve and an Evidence Preservation Mode feature, according to a leaked video obtained by 404 Media. The tools are designed to freeze seized iPhones before Apple's inactivity reboot—which locks down a phone after 72 hours unused—kicks in, and to prevent automatic deletion of data like cached locations and recently removed photos or messages.
