I belive my account was hacked and someone changed the name of my device. How can I trace who/when that was changed?

Is there a way to tell what device was logged into my account and to find out what phone or location changed my device name and when?

iPhone 8, iOS 14

No, there isn't. You can only see devices currently logged in.


Check your device list to see if there is a device signed in that you don't recognize. You can remove the device using the steps in the article below. As a precaution, change your password.
