Can I wipe an iPhone with Find My iPhone active? I don’t care if Find My iPhone stays active after the wipe.
My kid was given a bunch of old iPhones for a charity drive. Most of them have a clean slate but one phone is completely wide open with no passcode so all the personal data is available. It does have Find My iPhone on though, protected by an iCloud password. Another one has data but is passcode protected. For this second phone I don’t know if Find My iPhone is on or not, since obviously I can’t get into it to check.
Before I donate these, can I delete all the private data on the phones? I don’t care if Find My iPhone stays active on these phones. I suspect the the other clean phones may be refurbished for resale for the charity but these latter two phones may just have to recycled.
