How to Delete iCloud Account Without Entering Password Before Selling iPhone

With the release of new iOS 7, Apple also added few more security steps for iPhone and iPad owners. Now when the Find my iPhone feature is turned on, you can neither restore to new and fresh iOS and nor delete the iCloud account without first disabling the Find My iPhone feature. But there is a new bug in iOS 7 – up to iOS 7.0.4 – which allows any user to not only turn off the Find my iPhone but also delete the existing iCloud and add any new account.

Update: Apple had fixed this bug in the recent iOS 7.1 update. But there is a new bug even in the latest release which also allows the users to delete iCloud account without knowing the password. Read the details at the bottom of this post.

These days many mobile shop-keepers first check whether iCloud is active or not. If there is any account attached with device, they ask the seller to remove it first and then purchase it. If you want to sell your iPhone / iPad but you have forgotten the password or you don’t know the password, you can remove iCloud account by using this hack and then sell it.

This hack doesn’t require any software or special program. You have to perform few taps on your device and all is done. In fact it is a bug in the current iOS version. Fortunately, this bug has been fixed in the upcoming iOS 7.1 version.

Here is the step by step method to completely remove iCloud account without password:

Step 1: First of all open settings app and go to iCloud.

Step 2: Tap on iCloud account.

Step 3: Delete the existing password and enter any password (any random number).

Step 4: Tap on Done.

Step 5: After verification, iCloud will tell you that either username or password is incorrect.

Step 6: Click OK and then Cancel. You will be on iCloud main page again.

Step 7: Now again tap on Account and this time remove the description. Tap on Done.

Step 8: It will go back on main iCloud page without asking any password this time. Now you’ll see that Find My iPhone feature has been turned off automatically.

Step 9: Scroll down and tap on Delete account. A pop-up will open confirming you that if you delete your account, all documents and Photo Stream photos stored in iCloud will be deleted from this iPhone. Tap on Delete again.

Step 10: This time a new pop-out will show asking you whether you want to keep the data on iPhone or delete it from iPhone. Select one according to you choice.

That’s all. Now you have successfully removed iCloud account on your iPhone / iPad without knowing and entering the password.

Here is the video demonstration of this method by Bradley Williams who actually discovered this bug in iOS 7.0.4.
