Before you sell or trade in your iPhone or iPad

At RescueTECH Regina, we do not buy or trade iPhones or iPads.  However we are still here for you if you are planning on selling or giving away your device.  Before trading in, or selling your old iPhone or even iPad here are a few things you are going to want to do to ensure the process goes smoothly, and securely.

  1. Backup Your iPhone: Create a comprehensive backup of your iPhone's data using iCloud or iTunes. Safely store your important files, photos, contacts, messages, and settings, ready to be transferred to your new device.

  2. Sign Out of iCloud and Disable Find My iPhone: Prior to selling or trading your iPhone, sign out of your iCloud account by going to Settings > [Your Name] > Sign Out. Also, disable "Find My iPhone" under Settings > [Your Name] > Find My > Find My iPhone.

  3. Erase All Content and Settings: Protect your privacy by erasing all data and settings from your iPhone. Go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. This restores your device to factory settings.

  4. Remove Your SIM Card: If your iPhone uses a SIM card, remember to remove it before handing over the device.

  5. Unpair Apple Watch: For those with an Apple Watch paired with their iPhone, unpair it to prevent any lingering connections between the devices.

  6. Check Carrier Unlock Status: Verify if your iPhone was carrier-locked and ensure it has been unlocked before selling or trading.

  7. Perform a Physical Check: Thoroughly examine your iPhone for any physical damage or issues. Accurately represent its condition to potential buyers or traders.

  8. Clean the iPhone: Present your iPhone in its best light by wiping the exterior to remove dirt or smudges.

  9. Keep Original Accessories: Consider including any original accessories, such as charging cables or earphones, to enhance the value of your iPhone.

  10. Disable Screen Time Passcode: Remove any Screen Time passcode you may have set up on your iPhone before selling or trading.
