So as someone of you might've read, my pad Air 2 was stolen at my retail job by a couple. I use it for my job and it even has the job logo on it. The woman distracted me for 15 seconds while the other took it. Almost immediately after they left, I looked around and saw it gone. I tried to look at the security footage but by that time it was too late.

I have the security footage but not sure what I can do with it. I showed the cops and they said it would not be a priority but they have a description. It's a high traffic area so it's nearly impossible to track down the people. You can see the person but the quality isn't enough to fully id the chic and the guy.

Unfortunately, it was a wifi only ipad and they would have to manually connect to wifi in order for find my iphone to work and tell me where to bring a fuccking baseball bat.

I'm feeling helpless brehs. Already set lost mode up. No clue what to do from here. If Apple is to be trusted, it's impossible for them to reset it without my passcode. I was told to call pawn shops and already registered with a stolen property website. Anytips for how to recover it?

Can't they just jailbreak the bytch? :ld:
If it was set up to an iCloud account without the password you can't disable it. Once it connects to the Internet it'll be bricked by the order it's been sent. A jailbreak will require the device resets and it'll will lock upon reset anyway.

That's part of setting up the device. You configure an Apple ID unless you elect not to do it. Once you have an Apple ID setup it typically enables Find My iPhone which allows you to remotely lock the device.

Basically every time somebody figures out a way even remotely around this Apple fixes it because this is a server side issue.
