Apple Outlook Account Remote Wipe

So I recently added an Outlook account to my iPhone for my college. I didn’t notice at the time, but I had to grant it access to remotely wipe my device. I’m not okay with this, and I can use a 3rd party app to see my email. Now, the tech services say they won’t use this ability, but I’m not okay with that level of control.

If I remove the account from my device, will I remove their ability to wipe my phone?


Solution 1:

If you allowed a profile to be set on your device, you will need to also remove that profile.

Settings -> General -> Profiles

If you set up Outlook, then you can remove the account from Outlook, that should remove their ability to manage your device.
