One of these features is the ability to automatically delete all those two-factor authentication codes that wind up in your iMessage or Mail inbox.
Two-factor authentication is an easy way to keep your information safer. By typing a simple code when logging in to any of your accounts, you can protect your information from being stolen. But we all know how frustrating it can be to have your messages app clogged up with all the two-factor authentication codes that get sent directly to your phone.
With this new feature, all you'll need to do is toggle one setting, and then the two-factor authentication codes will be deleted from your account, freeing up your inboxes.
After you turn that one, you should be set. And don't worry -- this won't automatically delete any unused authentication codes -- it only deletes codes that you've already used. This also works in the Mail app, so all of your inboxes will be squeaky clean.
