What Is iCloud Activation Lock?

Every Apple user knows well what Activation Lock is. The company introduced this feature on iOS devices years ago, with the iOS 7 release, to help iPhone and iPad users protect their gadgets from unauthorized access.

Activation Lock turns on automatically on all iOS devices linked to an iCloud account and with enabled Find My. It requires a password to get past the Activation Lock screen. Without this step, it is impossible to restore or delete data on a locked device.

What Is iCloud Activation Lock?

With Activation Lock being on, no one can access a lost, stolen, or used iPhone or iPad. No workaround is available at the moment.

For example, if you find a lost Apple device or buy a used gadget from another user, you will have to contact the owner. The original owner's Apple ID and password are required for iPhone or iPad unlock. And before reselling a used iPhone or iPad to someone else, you should disable Activation Lock. Otherwise, the new owner will face this problem and contact you for a refund. And if there is no refund, a user will end up with a non-working device.

Whether you are about to resell your iPhone, have already purchased a used gadget, found an old device, you should check if Find My is on or off on it.

If you have a working device in your hands, go to Settings - type Find My and see if it is enabled before passing this gadget to someone else. Or, if you have a device and cannot access it, you will understand if Find My is on. With enabled Activation Lock, it is impossible to access it and use all the features. You become useless unless you know the password or a unique tool to bypass iCloud Lock on your behalf.

How to Check Activation Lock Status of Your iPhone and iPad?

Often, you are unsure if the iPhone or iPad has Activation Lock enabled or need to check a device you plan to purchase but don't have in your hands. Well, you can learn all details remotely.

Way #1. You have access to the iPhone or iPad

What Is iCloud Activation Lock?

You already know how to check iCloud Activation Lock on your iPhone if it is in hand:

  1. On a device, launch Settings from your iPhone or iPad Home screen.
  2. You will see different options, including 'iCloud', which you should click now.
  3. There will be a list of options. You need to proceed with 'Find My iPhone'.

This simple check for Find My on/off status is suitable for every user who wishes to resell the Apple device. Also, you can ask a seller to live record a video of this so that you are sure the used gadget is not iCloud locked.

Way #2. You don't have access the iPhone or iPad

However, often, you need to check iCloud Activation Lock status without the iPhone or iPad in your hands. Years ago, it was possible to check Activation Lock status on the Apple icloud.com website by IMEI or serial number. But the company eliminated this option in 2017.

In 2022, you can still ensure that the iPhone or iPad is not secured with iCloud Lock remotely. The iRemove iCloud Activation Lock status checker is a free online service you can use.

What Is iCloud Activation Lock?

Here is how to check Activation Lock status online:

  1. You need an IMEI number of the device you want to check.
  2. Enter the IMEI into the form on the website.
  3. Request the free Activation Lock checker and wait for the information. You will know for sure if Activation Lock is disabled or enabled on a checked Apple device.

Two possible responses are:

  • iCloud OFF - if Activation Lock is turned off on your iPhone or iPad
  • iCloud ON - if iCloud Activation Lock is enabled on a checked gadget

Protect yourself and ask a seller to provide you with an IMEI or serial of an iPhone or iPad. Check the gadget's Activation Lock status online with a free iRemove service. You will know the situation and decide to purchase a device or not yourself.

Not only used device could arrive with an Activation Lock problem. Some Apple users had this very same issue with their brand new gadgets, which for some reason were locked to third-party Apple ID (https://www.macrumors.com/2016/10/05/iphone-activation-lock-wrong-apple-id-issues/). The company fixed the problem and turned off Activation Lock for all affected customers with proof of purchase.

But let's say you have just used the free iCloud Lock checker and learned that your used iPhone or iPad has Activation Lock on it. Can you fix this problem yourself?

Ways to remove activation lock in 2022

An Activation Lock is a common problem for many iPhone and iPad users. Whether you purchase a used device from someone else, borrow one from a friend or find an old gadget with iCloud Lock on it, do something. It is possible to remove iCloud Activation Lock in several ways:

  • Use Apple ID and password to remove Activation Lock via Find My application.
  • Visit icloud.com website and use the original Apple ID and passcode to remove Activation Lock online.
  • Ask Apple to remove Activation Lock using your proof of purchase officially.
  • Bypass iCloud Activation Lock with iRemove software and without Apple ID/passcode.

Use Apple ID and password to remove Activation Lock via Find My application

The iCloud Activation Lock is a feature that does not enable on its own. It is a part of the Find My security, and it turns on only when you enable Find My on your iOS device.

Use Apple ID and password to remove Activation Lock via Find My application

This method is the fastest, simplest, and free of charge. But it does require your Apple ID and passcode. Follow these quick guidelines to disable Find My iPhone or iPad within seconds, at no cost:

  1. On your iDevice, go to Settings.
  2. Click your name (it appears at the top).
  3. Choose the iCloud option and scroll down till you see Find My.
  4. Click Find My and disable the toggle.
  5. Type in the Apple ID password as prompted by your gadget. Click Turn Off.

But this method can remove Activation Lock only if you have a device in your hands.

Visit icloud.com website and use the original Apple ID and passcode to remove Activation Lock online

Sometimes, you purchase a used iPhone or iPad that is locked because a previous owner forgot to turn off Find My.

Use Apple ID and password to remove Activation Lock via Find My application

Luckily, it is possible to remove the Activation Lock remotely. But you cannot do it yourself. Only the original owner who linked the device to their iCloud account and enabled Find My can turn it off. Here is what you should do:

  1. Ask the original owner to visit icloud.com website from a computer or mobile device and sign in to their iCloud account.
  2. Then the owner should press the Find My icon and click All Devices.
  3. Now it is time to select the locked gadget from the list.
  4. The previous owner can also press Erase to remove all the data and settings from your used iPhone or iPad.
  5. The last thing to do is press the Remove from Account option. It will turn off Find My.

Now, thank the previous owner and start using your device as if new. You can link it directly to your iCloud account and, if you wish, turn on Find My to enable Activation Lock and protect the gadget from unauthorized access.

Ask Apple Support to remove Activation Lock using your proof of purchase officially

Users who bought an iPhone from Apple and chose to keep the proof of purchase can try another method. The company usually sides with their customers and removes Activation Lock in some situations.

Ask Apple Support to remove Activation Lock using your proof of purchase officially

You can visit your nearby Apple Store, make a call and talk to a representative over the phone or visit Apple Support online (https://al-support.apple.com/#/kbase) requesting the Activation Lock removal. All these solutions will require proof of purchase.

Also, users believe that it is best to visit the Apple store personally with your receipt if you want to solve the problem asap.

The documents you provide must be issued by a reseller authorized by Apple. The receipt must include details about your smartphone, date of purchase, iPhone or iPad serial number, invoice number, price, etc. Otherwise, you will most likely fail.

Many customers cannot benefit from this method because the official Apple website only keeps records of your orders for 1.5 years. Those who throw their receipts after purchase, forget their Apple ID and password cannot contact the company for help.

Luckily, there is a different solution for every user who wishes their locked iPhone or iPad to work again without Apple's help. You can use the iRemove software to bypass iCloud Activation Lock on your device. And you will not need any passwords, Apple ID, or access to your iCloud account.
