Why you should unlock your iPhone 13

A network lock is a software code you can’t see that instructs your phone to work only on one network. If your iPhone 13 is network locked you won’t be able to use it with another network. Unlocking your iPhone 13 comes with many benefits. Plus, it’s completely legal and easy to do too. All you need is the IMEI number of your phone.

What's an IMEI, and where can I find it?

IMEI stands for International Mobile Equipment Identity. It’s a unique 15-digit number that links a device with the SIM card inside the device. The first 14 digits are defined by the GSM Association. The last digit is generated by an algorithm. There’s a record of every IMEI stored centrally in a database called the Equipment Identity Register (EIR). It’s used by mobile operating systems to determine if a device has a network lock on it. And, if so, what network it’s tied to.

Your IMEI is like your phone’s fingerprint. It’s completely unique and every phone has one. Unlike a SIM card which is linked to a user, and can be transferred from one phone to another, if unlocked, your IMEI is fixed to your device.

You can find your IMEI using your phone. Just type *#06# into your cell phone keypad, look for it in the ‘Settings’ menu, or locate it under the battery. It will also be on your SIM card.

You can’t unlock your iPhone without having your IMEI number. But the frustrating thing is, even if you know your IMEI, you won’t be able to manually activate a network unlock yourself. The process can only take place through the central manufacturers database. Which is why you need whitelisted software like Mobile Unlocked that has direct access.

How to unlock your iPhone 13 Pro Max

Whether it's Virgin, Telstra or Optus, the mobile market’s vast and full of different providers offering different deals. Being able to pick and choose from those providers to find a package that’s right for you makes sense. But if you’ve got a locked iPhone 13 you can’t switch network simply by inserting a new SIM. Your device needs to be unlocked first.

You can tell if your phone’s locked by inserting a new SIM card. If, after inserting a new SIM into your iPhone 13, you see the message: ‘SIM not supported’, it means your iPhone 13 is locked. The good news is, to activate your iPhone 13 unlock online, all we need is your IMEI number.

Using an authorized process called 'whitelisting', our software searches the Apple database (whitelisting) using the IMEI number of your iPhone device. Once it's located it removes the lock from the database.

Apple phones are automatically and permanently unlocked 'over the air' using Wi Fi. So you won't be sent an unlock code or promo code to input. All you need to do is insert your new SIM card and your iPhone model will update and unlock when you turn it on.
