Tablet got nicked... am I forgetting anything to do?
Discussion
Smash and grab. Stole my bag from a hire car and along with my work laptop and phone they also got my tab S8.
The tablet is secured with finger print, pin and (perhaps unfortunately face unlock, tho after a while you have to use pin only).
So far I have set the remote erase function through Google so if it ever connects to WiFi it'll wipe.
I'm going through passwords now and have also changed master password for Bitwarden.
I have also tried where I can to sign out of all active sessions of Google, chrome, bit warden, Adobe, etc so anything that was left logged in should log out.
Hopefully they're not interested in what's on it and just want to pawn it for money or whatever. But can't leave anything to chance.
Police informed for what it's worth but I'm currently out in the states (LA) so most likely I'll be gone before anything happens. It it happens.
Anything else to remember?

Thankfully all banking and authentication stuff is on the phone I'm using right now.
The table mainly just had apps for shopping, streaming, internet etc. So I've been able to remove stuff remotely.
The only thing that doesn't seem to be playing ball is outlook. I've changed my Microsoft password and also hit their "sign out of everything" button. But even after restarting my phone I can open outlook and I'm straight in no questions asked.
I've removed all my cards from Google pay. Hopefully that removes them from the "pre-fill" service for websites as well though you do need to know the CVC number on the card to use them. The tablet was never setup for contactless payments.

The Microsoft thing.
It's that to do with it being an authorised device. When you click the option for it to recognise particular devices and not be as stringent.
Perhaps logging into your account online may allow you to deauthorise linked or allowed devices. Something like that?
Not just sign-ins.
Yeah think I've been round that. Only seems to show actual computers. And there was weirdly a load of stuff on there about windows phone 8! Which hasn't existed for years!It's that to do with it being an authorised device. When you click the option for it to recognise particular devices and not be as stringent.
