One of the previous iPhone 4s Tips mentioned using the PIN number locking facility to secure your iPhone 4s in case it is lost or stolen. I stumbled across the point today that; you have to have the auto close down facility working for the PIN to work i.e. select 1 or 2 or 3 minutes to auto shut down in the SETTINGS part of the iPhone 4s. If you select the last option 'never', then of course the finder of the lost iPhone or the thief if it was stolen, doesn't need your PIN to use the iPhone as the HOME SCREEN will be showing!
I know that this is logical, but in order to use a Digital Clock App and constantly see the screen; I selected the 'never' shut down setting and then realised the implications if the iPhone was lost or stolen prior to selecting a time out. Close one there chaps and lasses, and I shall endeavour to pay more attention in the future
