How do you open a LifeProof case without a key?

Answered by Stephen Mosley

To open a Lifeproof case without a key, you can follow these steps:

1. Locate the charger port: Look for the charging port on the bottom of your phone. It is usually located in the center or towards one side.

2. Find the small slot: To open the Lifeproof case, you need to locate the small slot to the left of the charging port. This slot is used to access the locking mechanism of the case.

3. Flip the case over: Turn the case over so that the back is facing upward. This will allow you to access the locking mechanism more easily.

4. Grab a coin: Find a coin that fits into the small slot. A penny or a dime usually works well. You can also use a small flathead screwdriver or a similar tool if a coin is not available.

5. Slide your fingers into the bottom of the case: Place your fingers at the bottom of the case, where the charging port door has opened. This will give you a good grip on the case while you open it.

6. Insert the coin into the small slot: Take the coin and insert it into the small slot to the left of the charging port. The coin should fit snugly into the slot.

7. Turn the coin counterclockwise: Use the coin to turn the locking mechanism counterclockwise. Apply gentle pressure and rotate the coin until you feel the case loosening.

8. Open the case: Once you have turned the locking mechanism counterclockwise, you should be able to lift the top part of the case away from the bottom. Gently pull the case apart to fully open it.

By following these steps, you should be able to open your Lifeproof case without a key. Remember to be gentle when using the coin to avoid damaging the locking mechanism or the case itself.
