Lockdown mode bug

Your comments are not helpful, and not even related to the issue. I advise you to read the documentation on the lockdown mode if you have questions about the possible reasons why people use this mode.

Same here. The iPhone does not forward any calls to the Apple Watch when it is in lockdown mode. Also, incoming Walkie Talkie calls are blocked. This clearly is a bug, it took me 4 days to discover that lockdown mode was the cause. None of the 5 Apple geniusses that a talked to came up with this solution, they all wanted me to request for a Apple Watch replacement.

Tested on iPhone 13 Pro, version 9.3 and Apple Watch 7 Pro with version 6.3.

Bugreport submitted.

Lockdown Mode is an optional, extreme protection that’s designed for the very few individuals who, because of who they are or what they do, might be personally targeted by some of the most sophisticated digital threats. Most people are never targeted by attacks of this nature.

If you are in such a situation then contact Apple support or you local law enforcement but don't use it as a nice-to-have feature

What catastrophic life event caused you to turn on lockdown mode?

You should not be in lockdown mode under normal circumstances.

The main people you should be talking to is the police.

If it is not that bad then I dvise not using Lockdown Mode.

"When Lockdown Mode is enabled, your device won’t function like it typically does."

Me Too!

I also had the problem since iOS 16.2 and I tried to make a phone inquiry, but Apple replied that other users also had such a problem, I wasn't sure when this problem would be resolved.

What catastrophic life event caused you to turn on lockdown mode?

If you are not in lockdown mode then it is not a me-too.

I just gave the documentation and the relevant quote.

If you use an ejector seat you can expect a bad back and to never fly again.
