      Apple’s carrier information service has recovered, and Carrier Information lookups are now back online. However, SIMLock-only checks remain paused due to continued instability with Apple’s SIMLock service.

    iOS app not opening

    Apple iOS App
    1. August 15, 2025 at 7:53 PM UTCmonitoring

      We’re currently experiencing an issue where the Phonecheck iOS app may not open for some users. This is due to recent changes made by Apple that place new limits on certain connection requests our app relies on. These limits can temporarily disrupt access. Our development team is already implementing an update to ensure our app fully adapts to Apple’s new requirements. This update will be released on Monday as an over-the-air (OTA) update. Until then, we’re making temporary adjustments on our systems throughout the day to keep the app accessible. If the app becomes unresponsive, restarting Phonecheck after we’ve applied these changes should allow you to continue processing. We truly appreciate your understanding as we work to quickly bring you a permanent solution.

    2. August 15, 2025 at 7:54 PM UTCmonitoring

      We are continuing to monitor for any further issues.

    3. August 18, 2025 at 5:25 PM UTCresolved

      Hello team, A mandatory update for Phonecheck3 has been pushed (3.12.6batch2) and must be accepted on all stations. This update is required in order to continue processing iOS devices. Due to recent changes from Apple, older versions of Phonecheck3 will no longer function reliably. Updating ensures the iOS app remains operational and prevents processing disruptions. Please ensure you update all stations as soon as possible. Our team will continue to monitor and assist with any issues that may arise. Thank you for your cooperation.

      We are currently investigating an issue that is stemming from Apple's Servers experiencing an outage.

    2. August 13, 2025 at 10:07 PM UTCidentified

      We’re aware that the Phonecheck iOS app is currently not opening. This issue is not on our side — it’s being caused by a problem with Apple’s servers. Apple Business Manager experienced outages yesterday and today, which has created a backlog of requests in their API. Unfortunately, this backlog is affecting the ability for our iOS app to launch properly. We’re closely monitoring Apple’s status and expect the issue to resolve once their systems finish processing the queued requests.

    3. August 14, 2025 at 5:56 PM UTCresolved

      Good News -- We’re starting to receive reports that the iOS app is operational again. Please restart Phonecheck, select "Clear Cache" from the options at login, and then try processing your iOS devices. Let us know if everything is working on your end.

      Service Status Update: Apple Server Performance Issues We have an important update regarding the Apple server issue. Apple's status page has now changed this to a performance issue rather than an outage, indicating: "Performance: Yesterday, 10:00 AM - ongoing. Some users are affected. This service may be slow or unavailable." https://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/ Our team confirms that Apple devices are processing, but server slowness is causing delays. This is an improvement from the previous complete outage situation. Impact: Apple device processing is working but may be slower than normal. You might experience longer wait times when processing Apple devices. Android devices continue to function normally. Recommendation: Please allow extra time for Apple device processing. If a device seems stuck, the previous workaround of closing the application, waiting a few minutes, and trying again may still help. We continue to monitor the situation and are in contact with Apple regarding the full resolution of these performance issues. We appreciate your patience.

You should now be able to process all devices, both Apple and Android, without experiencing any delays or connectivity issues. Thank you for your patience and understanding during this service disruption. As always, if you encounter any issues with our service, please contact our support team.
