how to lock the phone when it is lost/stolen without passcode

[bj097]

I don't like to use pass code, because I am running and driving around with my phone so even if it's 4-digit, it's not really convenient. I don't like Face ID either, so I am now using without any pass code. I'd like to know can I remotely delete data on my phone in case it is lost or stolen? I'm not very familiar with iOS thing

I never tried it, but apparently you can erase an iPhone with the Find my app.

You’re just asking for anguish- if that phone ever gets lost or stolen if there’s no passcode on it and you’ve got valuable info inside.

Security or convenience, pick one and only one. It’s also a lot easier to leave your car unlocked and running so you don’t have hassle with the keys.

What's the problem with my question? I am just asking if an iPhone without passcode can be erased all the data remotely once lost, assume that internet connection is still there and nobody disables it and logs out of my Apple ID, which means when I suspect my phone is lost for short time and do some damage control.
