A simple utility 4uKey will help you unlock your iPhone in cases when you do not remember or do not know the password.

Since time immemorial, iOS by default offers to create a passcode when setting up an iPhone or iPad to protect the owner's personal information. If you enter this password incorrectly several times in a row, the device will be locked for one minute, and subsequent unsuccessful attempts will increase the time more and more. Recently, the iPhone of one Chinese woman was thus locked for as much as 47 years.

Despite the absurdity of the situation, this happens quite often. Mostly with old smartphones and tablets, or when devices fall into the hands of children. Fortunately, there is a simple way out of this situation - a special utility 4uKey from Tenorshare. With its help, you can easily unlock your iOS device if you have forgotten or do not know the password at all.

How it works

4uKey removes the password by resetting the iPhone to factory settings, no matter what type of protection was used. The utility unlocks a four-digit code, six-digit code, Touch ID or Face ID with equal success. The program simply downloads the latest firmware for the device and restores it.

At the same time, all personal information, music, applications and other content are erased from the gadget. In this, in fact, there is nothing to worry about, because the data can always be restored from the last backup or set up the device as new.

Important: 4uKey bypasses only the device lock password, but not activation.

In cases where the iPhone is locked after theft or loss, you will need a password from your Apple ID account to turn it on. So the utility is useless for attackers.

How to Bypass iPhone Passcode

4uKey works, one might say, in one click, and the whole process takes less than 10 minutes. To bypass iPhone passcode, you need to do the following.

1. Download 4uKey from the official site, choosing the version for macOS or Windows.

2. Install and run the utility.

3. We connect the gadget to the computer using the Lightning cable.

4. We agree with 4uKey's offer to download the latest firmware for your device and click the Download button.

5. Press the "Start unlocking" button, which will appear on the screen after the download is complete.

6. We are waiting for the completion of the process, in no case disconnecting the device from the computer until the end of the unlocking.

7. Done!

Now all that remains is to restore the iPhone from an iCloud or iTunes backup, or set up the device as a new one and start using it. Everything about everything took about 10 minutes, taking into account the time to download the latest firmware version.

What else can the utility do

Besides bypassing the password, 4uKey can also come in handy in other situations. For example, if you are going to sell your iOS device, using this utility you can easily delete all your data before giving it to a new owner.

Sometimes, due to crashes, the iPhone starts to glitch, getting into an endless reboot, and then the problem will have to be solved through iTunes. In this case, it is much easier and faster to use 4uKey: the result will be the same, but there will be less movement.

The utility can be downloaded for macOS or Windows from the official website. 4uKey is distributed by subscription, which will cost 2,379 rubles per year. You can get acquainted with the capabilities of the program for free using the trial version.
