Dialing for Dollars... Uh, I Mean, IMEI (Because This Won't Cost You a Dime)
The force is strong with this method, young Padawan. All you need is the Phone app pre-installed on your iPhone (shocking, I know). Here's the how-to:
- Open the Phone app. (Pretty straightforward, right? We're off to a good start)
- Tap the keypad, (As if you were about to call your bestie)
- Punch in the magic code: *#06#. (This isn't a cheat code for unlimited lives, but it is pretty darn useful)
- Poof! Like a magician pulling a rabbit from a hat, your iPhone's IMEI will appear on the screen. (Okay, maybe not that dramatic, but you get the idea)
Bonus Tip: Feeling fancy? Copy and paste the IMEI for safekeeping. (Just because you found it once doesn't mean you have to go on this treasure hunt again)

Tip: Break it down — section by section.
- Launch the Settings app. (This is where the real adventure begins)

- Tap on "About." (We're almost there!)
- Behold! Your iPhone's IMEI will be proudly displayed, nestled amongst other nerdy details about your device. (Like finding a hidden treasure chest)
Feeling overwhelmed by all this choice? Don't worry, both methods work like a charm. Pick whichever one tickles your fancy (or whichever one your phone allows if it's, ahem, indisposed).
