Guide to Unlocking Your Sprint iPhone

Unlocking a Sprint iPhone can seem complex, but it becomes straightforward with the right process. Purchasing an iPhone through a carrier often offers convenience, but it may limit your device's flexibility. Sprint, in particular, provides specific unlocking policies that vary based on purchase date. For iPhones bought after February 2015, devices typically unlock automatically once eligible, without contacting customer service. For earlier devices, you'll need to request an unlock once criteria are met. Remember, domestic and international unlocks are separate procedures, so complete both if needed.

Before proceeding, ensure your iPhone has been active on Sprint for at least 50 days, and it isn’t reported lost or stolen. Once unlocked, simply turn off your iPhone, replace the current SIM with a new one from another carrier, and restart the device. Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the setup, and you’re ready to use your iPhone with any compatible network.
