Remove iCloud Activation Lock Using Dr.Fone - Online Unlock (Supports the Latest iPhone Series)
Locked out by an iCloud Activation Lock and can’t sign in because you don’t have the Apple ID or linked phone number? The iCloud Activation Lock will block access to iPhone/iPad after a reset, leaving many legitimate device owners stuck. Fortunately, there’s a secure online option that helps you remove the activation lock when you are the device owner and have proof of ownership.
Dr.Fone iCloud Unlock provides an online iCloud Activation Lock removal workflow that uses your device’s ECID and the iFixTool helper to perform the unlock remotely. The process works through an online workbench — no Apple ID password or linked number required — and supports many iPhone and iPad models.
This guide walks you step-by-step through retrieving your ECID, submitting the unlock request on the Online Unlock Workbench, and finishing the removal with iFixTool.
