When lockdown mode is on

lockdow mode message that I get several times a day. The message says locked down mode blocked and my ex-boyfriend‘s email and it says from focus sharing.

what the ? Spying on me right ? Please help I don’t know what else to do. This is been going on since we broke up several months ago and I can’t stand it as an invasion of my privacy. He knows everything that I do and it’s crazy but why else would I be getting that email address in lockdown, I didn’t even get those prior to you putting in lockdown mode on my phone. I only received them after I put the lockdown.

iPhone 12 Pro

Hello lanette80,


This page can help provide the information from Apple on how Lockdown Mode works, including features/apps that it may affect when you have this mode enabled: About Lockdown Mode - Apple Support


How Lockdown Mode protects your device
When Lockdown Mode is enabled, some apps and features will function differently, including:
* Messages - Most message attachment types are blocked, other than certain images, video, and audio. Some features, such as links and link previews, are unavailable. 


You may choose to toggle on/off which apps your Focus Status is shared with in Settings > Focus > Focus Status. You may also learn more about the Focus feature here, if needed: Use Focus on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


This link can help provide details on the Safety Check feature: How Safety Check on iPhone works to keep you safe - Apple Support


What does Safety Check do?
You can use Safety Check to check whom you’re sharing information with, restrict Messages and FaceTime to your iPhone, reset system privacy permissions for apps, change your passcode, change your Apple ID password, and more.


Cheers.
