IOS 15.2 Update Can Reset Locked IPhone Without Connecting To MacBook

YOGYAKARTA - Apple has released the iOS 15.2 operating system update. One of the advantages of this operating system is that iPhone users do not need to connect their smartphone to the MacBook first when they want to reset the device.
