iCloud Check
Check iCloud Status
Enter the IMEI or serial number of the Apple device to check its activation lock status.
What is an iCloud Check?
An iCloud check verifies whether an Apple device is still linked to the previous owner's Apple ID through Find My iPhone (Activation Lock). Devices with an active Activation Lock cannot be erased, reactivated or used with a new Apple ID.
Checking the iCloud status before purchasing a used iPhone, iPad or Mac is essential to avoid buying a device that is permanently locked to someone else's account.
