My step daughter gave me her old phone and doesn't know how to unlock the activation lock. It is old and she doesn't remember the email. I would like to use the phone. Can you help me?

Your step daughter will need to know her Apple ID and Password to remove the Activation Lock on the phone. Apple ID is almost always an email address.

There are no other options. The phone will remain useless until the lock is removed.
