On March 25, 2026, Apple initiated age verification procedures for iPhone users across the UK, adhering to the British government's directive for improved online safeguards for minors. The UK stands as the inaugural European market to witness the deployment of this system by Apple. Under this new system, users are required to verify that they are at least 18 years old. Failure to do so will result in limitations on web browsing capabilities and the implementation of communication safety checks during Messages and FaceTime interactions. Verification can be accomplished through various means, including credit card details, driver's license, or passport photographs. Additionally, the range of apps accessible or downloadable by unverified users will be curtailed.
