What is an Activation Lock or iCloud Lock?

Activation Lock is a security feature on Apple devices designed to prevent unauthorized use if the device is lost or stolen. It links a device to the user's Apple ID, requiring the owner's Apple ID and password to turn off Find My, erase the device, or reactivate it for use.

Here's a more detailed explanation:

Purpose:

Activation Lock is a protective measure that ensures only the authorized owner can use the device.

How it works:

When Find My is enabled on an Apple device, Activation Lock is automatically activated. The device's Apple ID is securely stored on Apple's servers and linked to the specific device.

Security:

If a device is lost or stolen, Activation Lock prevents anyone from using it without the owner's Apple ID and password.

Restricting use:

Even if a device is factory reset, the Activation Lock will remain enabled, requiring the owner's credentials to reactivate it.

Lost/Stolen Device:

In such cases, the owner can use Find My to remotely lock the device with a custom message and/or erase it [1, 14]. The message will continue to display even after the device is erased, and Activation Lock will remain active, says Apple Support.

Used Devices:

When buying a used Apple device, it's crucial to ensure that Activation Lock is disabled before taking ownership, as it requires the previous owner's credentials to bypass.

What is an Activation Lock Removal or iCloud Unlock?

Activation Lock Removal and/or iCloud Lock is when the previous owner's Apple ID or email is removed from that specific device.

How Does Activation Lock Work?

When you sign into a device with your Apple ID or associated email address, Apple essentially pairs or links the Apple ID with the device's MAC address, Bluetooth Address and WiFi Address. Each and every time you restart or turn on your device Apple with send the device's data along with the Apple ID to Apple servers to verify and check that all featured addresses and the Apple ID match. Once Apple servers verify all data matches the device allows the user into the operating system. If anyone of those numbers/email addresses do not match OR if a owner marks the device Lost or Stolen in the Find My (FMi) app the device will lock the users/owner's Apple ID to that device via serial number and/or IMEI. The device will be "iCloud Locked" in Apple servers. The only way to remove this lock is for the owner to sign into the device via Apple ID and verify credentials.

Why are there so many scammers claiming to perform an iCloud Unlock?

Simply put, because it is the hardest service to perform or it is the hardest legit service to find or that is offered. Don't get fooled for online individuals trying to sell you access to Apple GSX servers or access to Apple Connect Servers. That is non existent anymore. Those are the servers that actually remove the owner's Apple ID from devices, removing the activation lock. You used to be able to buy access to these Apple Servers on the black market that you could enter some credentials from an Apple employee, go into the backend of those Apple Servers and remove device's Apple ID's and iCloud Unlock that way. Those days are long gone. Apple 4 years ago (around 2021) caught a few Apple Employees selling their credentials, caught onto the money making scheme and revamped the way employees sign into Apple Servers with 2 factor and 3 factor authentication as well as a second Apple employee inputting credentials. DO NOT BUY APPLE GSX OR APPLE CONNECT ACCESS OR ACCOUNTS. THAT IS 100% A SCAM (and highly illegal). The only way to remove a previous owner's Apple ID or email from an Apple Device is via the servers I have been using for years. The servers I present to you on The Unlocker website are directly linked to Apple GSX and Apple Connect servers via API. I have performed a few hundred iCloud Unlocks over the last decade. Our way is right now, honestly the only way I know how to remove Activation Lock. Again, unless you or a family member work for Apple. See our approved list of legit and verified unlock servers HERE.
