If 2020 taught us anything, it was that our lives could be turned upside down without warning. In the harshest months of the pandemic, we learned that one has to be prepared for the unpredictable. You have to think a few steps ahead and assess all possible scenarios, even the less favorable ones. Like many others, I often found myself thinking about the best ways to pass down my digital information to loved ones if the situation ever called for it.
Were something to happen to me, I wanted to ensure they had access to all of my devices, online accounts, and recent backups. Sharing passwords to devices alone wouldn’t be enough. What if the iPhone is lost in the process? I would also risk having that sensitive data exposed to hacks if it were stored online. I had also written out a sort of will, a set of instructions peppered with thoughts, so my family knew where and how to begin untangling the massive number of online profiles that would need to be dealt with.
Apple knows that some of us want to safeguard all the digital information that we want to have passed down to our loved ones after we're gone. And so, Apple created a new Digital Legacy feature that will be available on iPhone and Mac in the very near future.
