iphone disabled fix without itunes

Can I enable a disabled iphone XR without using iTunes? Itunes is not installed on my computer and has to be authorized by my disabled iphone before I can use it. How do I fix my phone?

No. The one, and the only way to reset a disabled device is to restore it in iTunes on a Windows or Mac computer. Or use finder if using a Mac running MacOS Catalina or Big Sur. There are no alternatives.

If you use recovery mode you don’t have to “trust” the iPhone to restore it.

You need iTunes in order to fix this.

If you are unable to download iTunes on your computer, you should ask a friend to borrow their computer, or you can visit the Apple Store.

You can follow the steps here if you are able to download iTunes, even if you install iTunes right now, it should still work.
