Self Introduction
Hi, my name is Darren, and I’ve been an iPhone user since the days of iOS 7. Admittedly, there wasn’t much you could do with iOS device back then (and I was a junior high school student), but starting that early has given me a broad perspective on what’s possible with the iOS environment and how far we’ve come since the early days.
10 years ago, I got a second-hand iPhone 5 from someone on eBay. I was told that the device was totally unlocked. But when I opened that iPhone, it stuck at “iCloud Activation Lock” interface. You can imagine how disappointed I was then. From then, I start to research the iCloud unlock solution. And now I own a team of 15 for researching device unlock.
Our team has tried a range of unlocking tool over the course of our hobby and career, with varying degrees of success – some are useful, and others are a waste of time. I bring all that knowledge and experience to this website so that you won’t have to spend years learning everything you’ll need to know to separate the good unlocking tools from the bad.
