The only completely free and reliable iCloud activation lock removal service for your Apple devices
Got an iCloud Activation Locked iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch? We understand how frustrating that can be, especially when you need to use your device for something important. UnlockMaker.com delivers a free, reliable solution for anyone wanting to remove that tricky iCloud activation lock, all from the comfort of your browser without any technical knowledge required.
iCloud Activation Lock is Apple's security feature that ensures only the rightful owner can access and use the device, especially after a reset. While it provides an excellent layer of security, it can sometimes create obstacles if not properly managed.
When a device is locked to an owner, it means the device is still linked to someone's Apple ID, preventing anyone else from using it. This commonly happens with second-hand devices or after factory resets without properly signing out of iCloud.
Since January 2021, UnlockMaker has been offering its iCloud unlock service completely free of charge, making it the only reliable free solution in the market. Our service ensures your device becomes fully functional with access to all Apple services including updates and iCloud features.
Before starting the unlocking process, it's important to verify that your device is indeed iCloud locked. This will help determine if our service is the right solution for your situation.
A device with iCloud Activation Lock will typically display a screen asking for the Apple ID and password of the previous owner when you try to set it up. This is Apple's way of ensuring the device isn't being used without authorization.
Recommended Verification Method:
The most reliable way to check is to attempt to set up the device. If you see a screen asking for the previous owner's Apple ID and password during setup, your device is iCloud locked. You can also check by visiting icloud.com/activationlock and entering your device's serial number or IMEI.
Second-Hand Purchase
Previous owner failed to sign out of their iCloud account
(Most common cause for second-hand devices)
Forgotten Credentials
You've forgotten your own Apple ID or password
(Common after long periods of not using a device)
Device Reset Issues
Device was reset without properly signing out of iCloud first
Our Recommendation: Before attempting to use our unlock service, try to contact the previous owner if possible. If they're reachable, they can remove the device from their account remotely, which is the fastest solution. If that's not an option, our free service is your best alternative.
UnlockMaker's iCloud unlock service works by bypassing the activation lock through our proprietary server technology, removing the association between the device and the previous Apple ID without compromising your device's functionality.
Our service provides a permanent solution, not just a temporary bypass. Once unlocked, your device remains unlocked through updates and resets, giving you complete ownership.
Unlike other services, our unlock ensures all iCloud services, updates, and device features remain fully functional, just as Apple intended them to be used.
