Frequently asked questions

What is the IMEI?

It's the unique 15-digit number that identifies your phone. You can see it by dialling *#06# or in the device settings.

Why does this matter when buying used?

An iPhone with iCloud locked, tied to a carrier or with a business lock can end up unusable. The report shows you that before you pay.

Is my data stored?

We use the IMEI only to generate your report. We don't publish or share your search.

Can I check a MacBook or iPad?

Yes. Enter the serial number and we also cover Mac and iPad, devices without an IMEI. The report shows the model, the warranty, the authenticity and, on devices that support it, the iCloud Lock (Find My).
