If I sold my iphone, can they still access my icloud data after reset?
I just recently sold my iPhone to my high school cousin who broke his phone. I had an old 6S as I currently own the 7. Before selling it to him, I deleted everything--reset factory settings, erase all content, etc.
Now, I don't usually choose to back things up to iCloud to be honest. The only things that are turned "on" under Apps Using iCloud are the ones that are defaulted on (Mail, Notes, Photos, Calendars, Reminders, Find my iPhone, etc.)
My question is, when he starts using the phone and setting it up, he wouldn t be able to access any data from iCloud without my account email + password, correct? Since I erased it all? I only ask because I use my iPhone primarily for work purposes (I have no additional apps like games or anything) so I worry about some things that could be accessed, such as important notes or emails. I use notes a lot for work, and I occasionally take pictures of important documents. He s a high school freshman, so naturally I worry about what he may do if he accesses some of this.
Yes. Without your Apple ID info, no access.
At least you did clear out the data prior. A lot of people for reasons that are beyond me, never do that & even go as far to give away their SIM with the phone.
As you completely reset the phone, you're fine.
- Sold an iphone on ebay and the person said they never got it.what can i do? The delivery was estimated to be july 23. And unfortunately someone threw away my receipt and my tracking info before i could put the number in. I tried calling the post office and they said they can't do anything? Is there any way i can have them look it up?
- Old iphone Icloud lock still enabled after I buy a new iPhone with icloud on it? If I had my iPhone stolen with icloud lock on and I was tracking it. But I buy a new one and activate the icloud and tracker, does that mean the old iPhone is unlocked? What happens to it? Will I be notified if someone turns it on? Can I track it?

- I sold my iPhone 4 and before I sold it I erased everything and I saw a video that? I just saw a video saying that who ever I sold the phone too can easily get my photos and everything back! Is that true? I was at school and my brother came and took my phone because he found someone that wants it I gave it to him and he said he will format it… I'm really scared I don't want my photos to go everywhere! They also said in the video that this happened to a girl! My brother sold it to some girl I'm really worried is it true that they can get the photos back?
