I read the older threads.
This morning my iPhone delivered the notification “Confirm iPhone Passcode. Confirm your iPhone passcode to keep using iCloud. This passcode also protects access to data stored in iCloud.”
At first I thought this might be a new phishing effort, but it also appears in Settings. My phone is an iPhone 12 on iOS 16.2. I installed 16.2 just a few days ago.
Is the fix still a full reset and reinstall (ugh)?
iPhone 12, iOS 16
Hi MC2022FL,
We'll be glad to go over this with you. You shouldn't need to reset or reinstall anything for this. Generally, you just need to enter the passcode it's requesting in order to verify your account. Keep in mind this may be a passcode from another iPhone on your account as well.
This is normal, and protects sensitive data, like passwords, credit card numbers, and Messages stored in iCloud. Once you approve access, only the device that you sign in on can read your data. Complete details on your iCloud data can be found here:
We hope that clears things up.
Cheers.
How in the world does this not a single decent response from Apple?
I'm still getting this message every few days. It is very annoying. It seemed to go away for a while, then suddenly, it is back.
I completely understand that this is a security feature and is necessary, but multiple times per week? This is getting ridiculous.
