Apple Launches iCloud Activation Lock Removal Service for iPhone, iPad and Mac

As you know, with the release of the iOS 7 operating system in 2013, a feature such as iCloud Activation Lock appeared in Apple smartphones and tablets. It is designed to protect iPhone, iPad and Mac from theft since it can block an electronic device remotely. Therefore, the person who stole or found it will be deprived of the opportunity to use it in any way. Besides, Activation Lock allows you to track your device’s location to find a stolen or lost electronic gadget. This function is really very useful; however, when buying used equipment in the secondary market, it creates more difficulties than brings benefits.

Attackers have learned to use iCloud Activation Lock for their own purposes, deceiving gullible and unsuspecting people. Apple has finally paid attention to this situation, having decided in February 2021 to launch an official fully legal service designed to unlock the Apple Corporation’s technology. Using this service, owners of iPhone, iPad, and Mac can turn off the Apple ID account security check function to gain full control over the electronic device and unlock all available functions in total.

As you know, iCloud activation blocking helps prevent third parties from using an Apple electronic device if they lose physical access to a mobile device. Activation Lock is automatically turned on when you activate Find My iPhone, iPad, or Mac in your Account Settings, and you can track its location using Find My. With the help of the new service, users can independently disable the activation lock without having to contact Apple support and wait for its response for many days, since only the American department, which is not working very quickly, was previously engaged in unlocking the company’s equipment. Because of this, the process of unblocking often took about two weeks.

You can now remove the iCloud Activation Lock using the new service by logging into your Apple ID account or resetting your account password. When applying to unlock an electronic device, you must confirm that the iPhone, iPad or Mac you are using is your personal property. To do this, the gadget should not be controlled through a third-party account or be tied to the account (profile) of a company or educational organization. If all the conditions are met, the service will allow you to remove the Apple gadget lock in a few minutes, gaining full access to it. As a rule, to confirm ownership of any gadget, you must provide a photo of the receipt and a photo of the box from the phone.

The new service can be used by residents of any country, including Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Europe, USA and Japan.
