It is well known that iPhones are high-end smartphones equipped with excellent security measures. The screen lock, for example, is essential to protect your data and device. It blocks unauthorized access with digit passcodes and biometric technology. Moreover, the Find My feature adds additional security to prevent unauthorized factory resetting. This guide explains how you can unlock someone's iPhone without a passcode.

Part 1: Figure out Someone's iPhone Passcode

The easiest way to hack someone's iPhone is by guessing the passcode. iOS supports six-digit, four-digit, and arbitrary-length alphanumeric passcodes. According to our research, most people use six-digit or four-digit passcodes. That may be about the user's or family's birthday, phone number, social ID, etc.

We don't suggest you use a third-party passcode hack service to figure out someone's iPhone passcode. They are expensive but not working at all. They can bring security risks.

Part 2: Unlock Someone's iPhone by Restoring

Another way to get into someone's iPhone is by restoring it to Recovery Mode. That brings the device to the factory status and erases all data on the iPhone. Bear in mind that this way cannot remove iCloud Activation Lock. If Find My has been enabled on the iPhone, you still need the associated Apple ID password when setting up the device after restoring it.

Step 1. Connect the iPhone to your computer with a compatible cable.

Step 2. Open the latest version of iTunes on Windows and macOS Mojave or earlier. For macOS Catalina or later, run the Finder app.

Step 3. Keep your device connected and put it in Recovery Mode:

On an iPhone 8 or later, press and quickly release the Volume Up button. Do the same thing with the Volume Down button. Long press the Side button until the connect-to-computer screen pops up.

On an iPhone 7/7 Plus, hold down the Volume Down and Side buttons at the same time until you see the connect-to-computer screen.

On an iPhone 6s or earlier, hold down the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons together until the connect-to-computer screen pops up.

Step 4. Once iTunes or Finder detects the iPhone in Recovery Mode, a pop-up dialog will appear with three buttons.

Step 5. Click the Restore button and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the process.

Step 6. When it finishes, the iPhone will restart and boot into the Hello screen. Now, you can set it up as a new device or restore a backup.
