iPhone 16 Unavailabke How to Fix

[Adam Gordan]

Hi all,

I'm just wondering is it reliable to fix my iPhone 16 showing "iPhone Unavailable" via online tools? I've heard of a reliable one called TunesKit iPhone Unlocker from my friends but I'm not sure if it works for the iPhone 16? Can anyone share your experience? Thanks.

Screen Lock Removal (Passcode, Face ID, Touch ID)
TunesKit officially supports unlocking screen passcodes on iPhone models including the iPhone 16 series (16, 16 Plus, 16 Pro, 16 Pro Max) running iOS 7 through iOS 18 TunesKit+1.
iCloud Activation Lock Removal
This feature is only supported on much older models (iPhone 6 through iPhone X), and only for iOS versions up to 16.7.5 TunesKit. So if your issue is the "iPhone Unavailable" lock screen (not Activation Lock), TunesKit may still work. But for iCloud lock on iPhone 16, it's not supported.

Very helpful reply. Tks. It's lucky I didn't turn on Find My iPhone, so the screen lock removal works!

You're very welcome! And yes — lucky indeed that Find My iPhone was off, because if it had been on, you'd have been stuck with Activation Lock, which can't be bypassed without the Apple ID password.
Since Find My iPhone was disabled, removing the screen lock via third-party tools or recovery mode actually works without triggering the activation lock — saving you a lot of trouble!
