How to prepare an iPhone for trade-in?
Before trading in an iPhone, back up your data, sign out properly, and make sure the phone is clean and ready for inspection. Good preparation helps protect your information and can also improve the trade-in experience.
Steps
- Back up important data to iCloud or a computer.
- Sign out of your Apple account and related services.
- Erase the iPhone only after backup is confirmed.
- Remove the case, SIM, and personal accessories before handoff.
What to check before trade-in
- Screen and body condition
- Battery and charging condition
- Whether Activation Lock has been removed
Pro Tip
- Take a few photos of the phone’s condition before handing it over in case the store or buyer later questions its state.
- Keep proof of the trade-in confirmation.
- Do not erase the phone until your backup is verified.
