Are you looking to trade your older iPhone in for an iPhone 17? That's great, as the iPhone 17 launch is underway and they're available at Apple Stores around the country, though they're selling quickly. But the phones selling out might not be your biggest concern, as an iOS 26 feature is actually delaying trade-ins.
The issue revolves around the Stolen Device Protection feature, which is actually great for keeping your phone from being used by thieves. If you're not in a trusted location, you can't make any major changes to your phone for an hour. This would prevent a thief from, for example, turning off the Find My tracking service. That sounds ideal.
