iPhone with “non-native” by spare parts
The software update for iPhone iOS 18 will contain replacement recognition, which will identify “donor parts”.
It will work together with the release of iOS 18. This is written in the edition of 9ТО5Мас.
If the smartphone contains parts from another iPhone, for example, after repairing the screen or replacing the battery, the system will automatically request the Apple ID from the donor iPhone.
As experts note, the new function associates your Apple Account not only with your iPhone, but also with componentssuch as the battery, cameras, and display based on their individual serial numbers.

Apple's goal is to put an end to the market for selling parts from stolen iPhones, since most stolen phones are sold on the gray market for parts , which are still quite valuable. Now, when the iPhone detects a changed part, it will ask for the original device owner's Apple account password.
