However, if you do not have the tool with you, you can use a paper clip or some other small object to open the tray.

Before selling your old iPhone to Swappie, make also sure that the device is unlocked. To unlock your iPhone, you have to contact your mobile network operator.
At Swappie, we buy old, used and even slightly broken iPhones. The price we pay for your used device depends on its model and condition.
