The court heard from Crown Prosecution Service prosecutor Mark Hambling that the 27-year-old, who was represented at the hearing by defence solicitor Emma Thorne, had stolen a purple iPhone 11 from another person in Hereford on July 24 last year.
White, of Wall Street in Hereford, was fined £40 for the offence, with magistrates saying they had taken her guilty plea into account when imposing the penalty.
She was also ordered to pay prosecution costs of £90 and a £16 victim surcharge, which is used to help fund services supporting victims of crime.
