What to do when your iPhone or iPad is stolen

Mikah Sargent, writing for iMore, with a heart-sickening tale:

On the night of Monday, June 13, someone stole my 12.9-inch iPad Pro from my bag during the annual Beard Bash event. I won’t go into the gritty details, but suffice it to say my valuables (as well as those of my colleague Serenity Caldwell) were in a secure location. Unfortunately, secure doesn’t always mean nothing bad will happen, and in this case, something bad did happen: My iPad Pro was removed from my bag, Serenity’s belongings were stuffed into my bag to make it look full (I guess), and the iPad Pro went bye-bye.

Read the rest. Some solid advice.

Here’s another take on the same topic (shared by Loop reader Andrew Leavitt). One key bit from this post:

Turn on ‘Restrictions’ and lock changes to ‘Location Services’

I found this second article to be a bit out of sync with the current iOS interface, wondering if this is no longer good advice or if the interface is just a bit different. Anyone know if you should be using Restrictions to lock Location Services? Or is that unnecessary?
