How to Reset iPhone without iTunes | iphonexpertise - Official Site

RESET we mean that operation that deletes all the data of the device and restores it to factory conditions. This is usually done when you want to sell or give your iPhone as a gift or when you want to bring the device back to its initial conditions to solve operating problems. We have already seen how reset the iPhone via iTunes, below instead we want to point out alternative ways to delete everything on the iPhone without using iTunes.

Perhaps the fastest way to reset iPhone without iTunes is to use the functions already present in the iOS device. Here are the steps to follow:

1. On your iPhone go to “Settings”> General> Reset
2. Select the “Erase all data and settings” option.
3. Enter the password (if requested) and then click on “Erase iPhone”.

NB: Before doing the reset make sure you have a backup of your iPhone and save it on your computer. If you don't have such a backup, read how to backup iPhone without iTunes.

In this way, your iPhone will return to the way it was when it was just purchased. This procedure certainly works well but does not guarantee that the data in the device memory will be permanently deleted. If you want to be sure that the data can no longer be recovered, we recommend using a program such as SafeEraser or read the solution below.
