LockWiper facts for kids

LockWiper is a computer program created by iMyFone. It helps people remove different kinds of locks from their Apple devices, like iPhones, iPads, and iPod touch. For example, if someone forgets their Apple ID password or their iPhone passcode, LockWiper can help unlock the device. It can also help if a device has a special management lock called MDM.

According to its creators, LockWiper can remove an iPhone passcode even if the screen is broken or the device is disabled. It can also quickly help bypass a Screen Time or Restrictions passcode without losing any important information on the device.

What LockWiper Does

LockWiper is designed to help users regain access to their Apple devices when they are locked. This can happen for a few reasons, like forgetting a password or getting a device that is still linked to someone else's account.

Removing Passcodes

One of the main things LockWiper can do is remove passcodes from iPhones. A passcode is the secret number or pattern you use to unlock your phone. If you forget this code, or if your phone gets disabled after too many wrong tries, LockWiper can help you get back into your device. It can also help if your phone screen is broken and you cannot type in your passcode.

Handling Apple ID and MDM

LockWiper can also remove an Apple ID from a device without needing the password. An Apple ID is like your personal account for all Apple services, such as the App Store or iCloud. If you get a used device that still has the previous owner's Apple ID, this tool can help remove it.

Another feature is bypassing the MDM (Mobile Device Management) activation screen. MDM is often used by schools or companies to control and manage many devices at once. If a device is locked by an MDM profile, LockWiper can help remove that profile.
