Users across the globe have been reporting being unexpectedly signed out of their Apple IDs on multiple devices, sparking concerns about the security of their accounts. The problems started around 8 p.m. ET and have quickly gained traction on social media platforms.
Despite the widespread reports, Apple’s System Status webpage has not shown any issues with its services, leaving users puzzled about the cause of the mass sign-outs. Resetting the Apple ID password seems to be the only solution to log back into the accounts, but some users have reported difficulties in doing so.
Those with Stolen Device Protection enabled may face additional complications as resetting the Apple ID password also resets app-specific passwords set up via iCloud. It is still unclear whether the issue is related to ongoing password reset attacks or if it is a technical glitch within Apple’s system.
Various users have taken to social media to express their frustration over the issue, with Apple yet to issue an official statement addressing the matter. In the meantime, users are advised to enable two-factor authentication for added security on their accounts.
As the situation continues to develop, more information will be provided to keep users informed about the status of their Apple IDs and devices. Stay tuned to Road Rug Cars for updates on this ongoing issue.
