What is iCloud Activation Lock?
iCloud Activation Lock is Apple's anti-theft feature that ties an iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch to the owner's Apple ID. When enabled (via Find My iPhone), the device cannot be erased, reactivated, or used by anyone without the original Apple ID password.
While this is an excellent security feature for device owners, it creates problems when you legitimately acquire a device where the previous owner didn't remove their iCloud account — a common situation with second-hand purchases, corporate device liquidations, and inherited devices.
Our unlock service works through official channels to remove the Activation Lock at the server level, meaning the unlock is permanent and survives factory resets, iOS updates, and hardware repairs.

Does our service cover your scenario?
Bought an iPhone still linked to the previous owner's iCloud?
This is the most common reason customers come to us. When you buy a second-hand iPhone — from eBay, Facebook Marketplace, or a private seller — the previous owner may have forgotten to sign out. Our IMEI-based unlock removes the lock at the server level regardless of whether the original owner is contactable.
Enter your IMEI above →Inherited an iPhone or iPad and can't get past Activation Lock?
Inheriting a device from a deceased relative is one of the most difficult situations to navigate. Apple's standard process requires account credentials. Our unlock service provides a faster resolution — no documentation required, no long delays.
Enter your IMEI above →Have ex-company iPhones locked to a previous employee's Apple ID?
Corporate device liquidations often leave IT teams with iCloud-locked handsets. We support bulk unlock orders for IT teams and asset disposal companies. Enter the first IMEI to see pricing, then contact us for a multi-unit quote.
Enter your IMEI above →Locked out of your own iCloud account?
Factory reset without signing out, changed Apple ID credentials, or moved countries and lost access — our unlock service removes the Activation Lock via IMEI, giving you full access to set up a new Apple ID.

What Our Customers Say
"Bought an iPhone 14 Pro on eBay for a great price. When it arrived, it was stuck on the Activation Lock screen — the seller had forgotten to sign out. I contacted the seller but got no response. DeviceDecoded processed the unlock within 48 hours. Submitted the IMEI, paid online, received the confirmation email, connected to Wi-Fi and it set up perfectly. Completely permanent — I've since updated to the latest iOS and it's still unlocked."
"My mum passed away last year and left me her iPhone 12. I couldn't get past the iCloud screen and Apple said without the credentials there was nothing they could do. DeviceDecoded was the only service that gave me a clear explanation of how the process works. They processed it in about 3 days and sent me a step-by-step activation guide. The phone is now fully set up. I'm so grateful."
"We had 12 ex-company iPhones from a department closure — all locked to a previous employee's Apple ID. IT department had no record of the credentials. DeviceDecoded handled all 12 in a single batch order. Turnaround was 4 business days, all unlocked successfully. The account portal made it easy to track each device. Will definitely use again for future corporate liquidations."
"Factory reset my old iPhone before giving it to my daughter and somehow lost access to the Apple ID I'd used for years. Apple Support couldn't help without the original email address. DeviceDecoded sorted it within 36 hours. Professional service, very clear communication throughout. Highly recommend for anyone in the same situation."
"Moved from the US to Ireland and changed my Apple ID region. Something went wrong with the transition and my phone locked to the old account. Spent two weeks going around in circles with Apple Support. DeviceDecoded had it unlocked in under 24 hours. Simple process, clear instructions, and a receipt for my records. Outstanding service."
"Our company bought 30 iPads at a liquidation auction. Every single one was iCloud locked. DeviceDecoded handled the entire batch — they were efficient, responsive, and every device was successfully unlocked within 5 business days. The pricing for bulk orders was fair and transparent. Excellent for B2B use."
