There’s An iPhone Loophole That Helps You Unlock Without A Password

A TikToker has revealed a hack to unlocking an iPhone without a passcode or face ID.

You can watch the video below:

In the video, the user can be seen asking his friend to try and unlock the phone, by entering a code on his calculator - and we are so shocked!

The man begins by telling his mate to swipe down covering his face ID, before turning off wifi, bluetooth and data.

He then asks him to turn on aeroplane mode, open his calculator, and turn the phone sideways, before typing a special sequence and finally, swiping up.

And viewers were astonished when the phone then appeared to be totally unlocked! Of course, it's worth noting that the hack should only be used in emergency situations.

One wrote: "OMG it worked."

Meanwhile another said: "No way it actually worked."

And a third added: "It worked. I cannot believe it worked."

Tyla has contacted Apple for comment.

We're learning so much from TikTok at the moment. Last week, we told you how one doctor revealed how to find out if you're dehydrated in just a few seconds.

The Turgor Test - also referred to as the 'skin pinch test' is mega easy and simply involves pinching the skin and assessing the time it takes for it to return to its normal state.

Dr Karan Raj - aka @dr.karanr on TikTok - responded to another TikTok user who claimed it works by pinching the skin at the middle point of the finger.

Dr Raj explained that while he wasn't sure if the user's method was accurate on the knuckle, the principle behind the skin pinch test is correct.
