Stolen device protection security delay

I work from home and I rarely ever leave the house and when I do it’s never to the same location. I have significant locations on and everything. I’ve gone through location services, but it still does not recognize my home as a familiar location and it keeps giving me security delays every-time I want to make changes because it tells me I’m not in a familiar location. Does anybody know how to get around this ? I’ve gone so far as resetting my locations and literally erasing the phone and it still does it. My address is on my wallet in the maps app and on my account and still get the same security delay. Any ideas to resolve it?

iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 17

Same exact scenario. I’m trying to add some new Fido keys to my IPhone. It keeps telling me I’m not in a familiar place. Like you though I don’t leave 95% of the time. All of the places they tell me to have my info are filled out, everything is enabled, and it just doesn’t work.


I am extremely close to disabling this feature because it’s obvious it doesn’t work the way it is supposed to. I’d rather get in a fist fight with the person stealing my phone than deal with this stupid hour delay anymore.
