Buy and sell used iPhones with confidence. 96 Check helps you verify an iPhone's real status from its IMEI or serial number before any money changes hands. Point your camera at the box, the *#06# screen, or pick a photo, and 96 Check reads the IMEI on your device and runs a secure lookup in seconds. WHAT YOU CAN CHECK • Find My & Activation Lock is the device still tied to someone else's Apple ID? • iCloud & Lost Mode spot a device that may be lost or stolen • Blacklist status reported lost, stolen, or blocked by a carrier • Carrier & SIM lock whether it's locked to a network • MDM / remote management left under an organization's control • Activation & warranty status is it really new, and is it still covered? A CLEAR VERDICT, NOT JARGON Every check rolls up into a single, easy-to-read verdict, so you instantly know whether a device looks safe, needs a closer look, or is best avoided. An on-device summary explains each finding in plain language generated privately on your iPhone, for reference only, never a "buy / don't buy" instruction. YOUR "BEFORE YOU BUY" CHECKLIST 96 Check turns the results into concrete steps to run with the device in hand: watch the seller sign out of Find My, match the serial across the box and Settings, dial *#06#, test every camera and button so nothing gets missed at the meetup. PRIVATE AND SECURE BY DESIGN • Photos are processed entirely on your device and are never uploaded. • We never ask for your name, phone number, or email. • Connections are protected with certificate pinning, and every report stays yours alone. Whether you're buying a second-hand iPhone, selling your own, or simply confirming a device's status, 96 Check gives you the facts you need fast, accurate, and private.
