Auto-Reboot Timeout: Enhanced Security
Your privacy is our top priority. With iodéOS 6.9, you can now configure your device to automatically reboot after a set period of inactivity. This ensures your phone returns to a secure, encrypted state, keeping your data safe if the device is left unattended.
Where to find it? Settings → Security & Privacy → More security & privacy
N.B.: Also included in iodéOS 5.
Lock Screen Security: Disable Quick Settings
You can now completely disable Quick Settings access from the lock screen, not just sensitive toggles like Airplane Mode or Wi-Fi. This adds an extra layer of security, preventing unauthorized changes to your device settings.
Where to find it? Settings → Security and privacy → Device Unlock → Screen Lock
Also included in iodéOS 5
Multi-User Improvements: Full Logout & Private Space
Full Logout for Secondary Users
Secondary users can now be fully logged out of the device, rather than just switching accounts. This ensures a cleaner separation of user environments and better privacy for everyone sharing the device.
Also included in iodéOS 4 and later versions.
Private Space & Work Profiles for Secondary Users
Secondary users can now use Private Space and Work Profiles, allowing them to leverage apps like Shelter for better data isolation. This is ideal for families or teams who need to keep personal and work data separate, even on shared devices.
Work Profiles also included in iodéOS 5.
Smarter App Integration: Automatic App Link Validation
App links (deep links) let apps open specific URLs directly instead of defaulting to the browser. With iodéOS 6.9, apps can now automatically validate these links if configured, eliminating the need for manual approval and making the experience smoother and more efficient.
Where to find it? App Info → Open by default
Also included in iodéOS 4 and later versions.
