The Activation Lock makes iPhones less attractive to thieves. When you set up an iPhone, it’s associated with your iCloud ID. Even if someone steals it, they can’t set it up and use it unless you remove the Activation Lock.

Unfortunately, criminals aren’t the only people frustrated by Activation Lock. If you buy a used iPhone and don’t realize it’s locked, for example, you might end up locked out of your new phone. Here’s how to bypass it.
