Later renters or the rental company&#39;s staff may be able to see them. So before you return it, go into the car&#39;s settings, find the list of paired devices and delete your phone from it. And if you only need a charge, a cigarette lighter adapter is safer than the car&#39;s USB port, which in some cases can move data on its own. 2026-11-11T00:00:12Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs9p6r0k7l2tkpj85xsc9n2rt4rnq46ga509gvweff85xn82zwznaqzyqgx424npmv63uhpemup8am3t5r8fjdfdaj4c4u32gkfy5ggdacqxlycfs5 Before you hand your phone to a stranger to take your photo, you can lock it to the camera. On an iPhone, go to Settings, then Accessibility, then Guided Access, turn it on and set a passcode. Then open the camera and click the side button three times (the Home button if your iPhone has one). Pick Guided Access if a menu pops up, then tap Start. They can take the shot but can&#39;t switch to another app. And if you circle the little photo preview in the corner before you tap Start, that part stops responding too. 2026-11-09T01:45:13Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs2xa2teskvxtek9u7qsyfwrzd7yphsmx7a6lcnnajyx44dvdvew2szyqgx424npmv63uhpemup8am3t5r8fjdfdaj4c4u32gkfy5ggdacqxc6dhqg WhatsApp can download photos and videos on its own as they arrive, and on a small travel data plan every one of them counts. On Android, tap the three dots, then Settings, then Storage and data, and untick the media under When using mobile data and When roaming, then tap OK. On an iPhone, open Settings in WhatsApp, then Storage and data, and set each type to Never or to wifi only. You still get every message. You just tap a photo when you want it. 2026-11-08T01:45:06Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsq2f02255hety8t3t4dh5z33ltqzv3adz5w8y2rh02a82w8juqcyczyqgx424npmv63uhpemup8am3t5r8fjdfdaj4c4u32gkfy5ggdacqx5ksc7v Put your boarding pass in Google Wallet before you leave for the airport, if your airline offers it. Once it&#39;s saved you can open it without a connection, so it still comes up at the gate when your data isn&#39;t working. It can&#39;t pick up a gate change while you&#39;re offline, though, so keep an eye on the airport screens. 2026-11-07T01:45:16Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqszll2z9tt37t37my7uyf6kpqnnhm8rd6uc0ny0asc0nzp37st2ftgzyqgx424npmv63uhpemup8am3t5r8fjdfdaj4c4u32gkfy5ggdacqxg58uv9 Signal has a setting called Registration Lock, and it&#39;s worth switching on. Go to Signal Settings, then Account. With it on, anyone who tries to register your Signal account on another phone needs your Signal PIN as well as the SMS code. Just make sure you know that PIN first, because if you forget it you may be locked out for up to 7 days. 2026-11-06T01:45:03Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs9245k8rxjla40qsthck8jjzarjfp7rfrzugtx4r7fwhn8t6f9hrgzyqgx424npmv63uhpemup8am3t5r8fjdfdaj4c4u32gkfy5ggdacqx5rsdeu If you&#39;ll want Google Translate on the trip, download the language before you fly. Once it&#39;s on your phone it translates without a connection, so it still works if your data isn&#39;t set up yet when you land. Not every language has a download, so check yours first. In Apple&#39;s Translate app, download both languages, the one you speak and the one you need. 2026-11-05T01:45:14Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs9z4yvmj9a6xfm00v5mx5ltnkqa8qlua5njz9x0u0829ts8zknpnczyqgx424npmv63uhpemup8am3t5r8fjdfdaj4c4u32gkfy5ggdacqxzg2t4v Before your trip, fill in Medical ID in the Health app on your iPhone. Tap your profile picture, then Medical ID, and add your allergies, medications and an emergency contact. Check that Show When Locked is on, so a first responder can read it from the Lock Screen without your passcode. Anyone else holding your phone can read it too, so only add what you&#39;d be fine with a stranger seeing. 2026-11-04T01:45:08Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqst6gwqfgk3g78x26tarr0c8x9neps5yqdjzvj2yt65lgv3phkxelqzyqgx424npmv63uhpemup8am3t5r8fjdfdaj4c4u32gkfy5ggdacqxeue6j2 If your trip plan has a small data allowance, turn on Low Data Mode for cellular (iOS 13 or later). It turns off Background App Refresh and pauses automatic backups and iCloud Photos updates. Go to Settings, then Cellular, then Cellular Data Options. On a 5G plan, tap Data Mode there, then turn on Low Data Mode.

Away from places like home or work, it asks for Face ID or Touch ID, with no passcode fallback, before you use saved passwords or set up an eSIM. Changing your Apple Account password also adds a one hour wait.

Apple says a shared photo includes details like the date, time and location, and the people you send it to may be able to see where it was taken.<br/><br/>If you&#39;d rather your trip photos not carry a location, go to Settings on your iPhone, then Privacy &amp; Security, then Location Services, then Camera, and pick Never before you leave. Photos you take with the Camera app after that won&#39;t record a location.

Tap Don&#39;t Trust.<br/><br/>Apple says a trusted computer can sync with your iPhone and get to your photos, videos, contacts and other content. Saying no blocks that access, and the question comes back each time you plug into that port.<br/><br/>Or bring your own charger and use a wall socket.

While the phone&#39;s with you, the watch connects through it over Bluetooth.<br/><br/>Leave the phone in the hotel room, though, and the watch needs wifi it can use, or a plan of its own that your home carrier has set up to roam.

Some countries outside the EU use it too, like Switzerland. Anywhere else, look the number up on an official page for that country.<br/><br/>Having the number doesn&#39;t mean the call will connect on a data only travel eSIM, though.

To lock or erase a lost phone, you sign in to Google on another device, and the phone that would get the code is the one that&#39;s gone.<br/><br/>Google says that without backup codes or a security key, you may need to order a new SIM from your carrier. You&#39;ll find the codes under two step verification in your Google Account.

That could include a hotel or driver calling for the first time.<br/><br/>Save important numbers and check voicemail.

Read the exact plan&#39;s terms and coverage before relying on it for your next trip. 2026-10-08T00:45:42Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqswgk3sxxf329uuss9a07sk7lxpxs4cxm2e45m2r4rxhaz0n2mfurszyqgx424npmv63uhpemup8am3t5r8fjdfdaj4c4u32gkfy5ggdacqx0h7fw6 Using GrapheneOS on your trip?
