By any chance, did you fall for a scammer's story, and

  • Give a scammer your Apple Account credentials, or
  • Log into a scammer's Apple Account

only to find your phone placed into Lost Mode ("Locked to Owner")? ("they locked my phone") ????


If so, the phone is lost to you.


In any case, I can't see how having an Android phone would help you remove any kind of lock – whether Activation Lock, blacklisting, carrier lock, forgotten passcode, or SIM PIN/PUK code lock.

Who locked your phone? How is it locked? Forgot Passcode? Activation Locked? Are you the original owner of the phone or did you buy a used iPhone from someone? Did you let someone else log into your phone, which locked you out? And no, you cannot unlock an iPhone using an Android phone.
