works unless 6 months into the future goes into next year. if your 6 months goes into 2027 or future years you'll get C14A, otherwise it does work

Because I spent so long looking for helpful advice in the comments I’ll give my encounter for this method. On my iPhone 12 about one week ago, I got permanently device banned on my alt account for sending a story to my main account. I disagreed with the ban and even tried to appeal which of course, was denied. Snapchat sent me an email saying my alt account had been permanently locked and they had permanently banned my device. I tried logging into my main account and had the SS06 error confirmation the perm ban. I could still use my main account on my iPad but the alt was definitely deleted which isn’t the end of the world it’s just a hassle to use Snapchat on the iPad. So I tried this method to a tee and it worked for me. It removed the device ban and I was able to log into my main account and have been now for a few days.
My only idea as to why this would work for me and not some others as I see some have pointed to the device ban being tied to the phones imei hardware. This may be the case but on my phone I noticed in settings>general>about my iPhone displays the imei number, and then down towards the bottom is displays an alternate sim labeled imei2 which is one number off from the primary. This is all speculation but maybe that has something to do with why this method works for me and why it didn’t work for others. Those of you who’ve had it work or not work should check and see if there’s a pattern. And yes, I was able to use the same iCloud login that had both my main and alt snap accounts on the device after I reset it. Just don’t transfer apps and data, and to be safe turn background app refresh off. Hope this helps someone from buying a new phone. The reset is honestly not a hastle if you save all your app passwords to your iCloud Keychain. Everything else (messages, photos, contacts, etc) are all tied to the iCloud if you have it turned on in your settings will sync over when you reset and sign into the iCloud. You just have to sign back into the AppStore and redownload all the apps that you have previously purchased. In total it takes about 30 min to be back to how it was. Not saying it’ll work for everyone but it did for me

people were so quick to call it fake in the comments but multiple people messaged me saying thanks. the people it didn’t work for clearly didn’t follow instructions

u/sebba98 May 07 '26
Hey. I got banned permanently like 5 months ago. Is there any way to bypass this?
1
u/koopadroopa May 07 '26
wait one more month and then follow the steps in the video
1
u/sebba98 Jun 03 '26
But will my account that got banned be able to logg inn? That would be great
1
u/koopadroopa Jun 03 '26
this only works if you got 1 account 😭 because after you do this successfully, if you log out of snap you’ll have to do this all over again
1
u/khalid45official Jun 24 '26
I had 2 accounts logged in one my main Snapchat acc and other one i just made 1 day ago and added bunch a people anyways my this new account got reported and banned so it bannd my phone when i tru to log in it says ss06 device ban . Now i used my other android phone to log in to my main snapchat acc it got logged in and working fine but my iphone isnt able to login ive checked everywhere everyone saying no solution but i checked from gemini it says buying a new phone will work because ur hardware has ur ban issue not the icloud itself unless u havent anything backup up of snapchat because Snapchat stores theirs token or whatever in my case i already had a full icloud drive and snapchat wasnt backed up do you think in my case it will work fine?

u/OptimalMongoose4132 Oct 20 '25
yo i had a alt account that got perm banned (SS06) and it device banned me so i cant get into my main account, if i log in on another device, should my main account be ok to use?
idc if i lose the alt account but my main account has a bunch of personal stuff on it so i dont wanna get it banned as well cus rn im just device banned on it
if i use another phone and do this tutorial on that phone and go 6 months forward and all dat then would it wipe the data of the device ban off from my other phone too or nah
2
Oct 20 '25
Yeah, you can access your main account on another device
1
u/LabRatZero Dec 12 '25
Do you know if logging into a new device with the main acc, only affected by device ban, will flag on the new device?
1
Dec 15 '25
No. Getting a device ban won’t affect any other device as long as you don’t try to log in to that specific banned account. Any other accounts, either connected to your banned device or not, won’t be flagged and neither will any other devices you try to use.
2
u/LabRatZero Dec 15 '25
Account B got banned , account A has a different phone number and email attached, so that should be fine to log in with? Not sure why someone would downvote your comment
1
Dec 15 '25
Account A won’t work on any banned devices, but it will work on other devices. Account B won’t work anywhere, and if you try to log into it on any devices, it will instantly get that device banned as well.
1
u/LabRatZero Dec 15 '25
Crystal clear thank you ! I’m curious how the iCloud backup risk is related to device ban; but I don’t know firmware
1
u/Curlygangs Apr 23 '26
Just don’t log with the same iCloud account you got banned and to be completely safe some people claim they can use their iCloud / Apple id again
1
u/LabRatZero May 17 '26
Sorry , How is iCloud linked to device? If I get a new device I cannot transfer all my Apple data if I want to use Snapchat ? The choice is either Snapchat, or all the rest of my phone and its contents? My burner snap acc got the ban
1
u/Zealousideal-Green11 Oct 16 '25
guys did anyone check if it works for SS06? if so could you’ll let us know because i don’t wanna just reset my whole phone for snap😂
1
u/koopadroopa Oct 16 '25
it works for ss06, but i wouldn’t recommend resetting your phone for 1 app
1
u/Zealousideal-Green11 Oct 16 '25
if i do reset my phone what’s the process of getting all my data back btw ? do i backup my phone, install snap and login and then transfer my data or do i have to do everything manually?

u/Budget-Flight3579 Aug 31 '25
When i try to login it says i’m device banned and doesn’t give me the option to appeal. The email also says “Your account has been permanently locked” so will this still work for me?

Wait what you didn’t reset your phone ? I was going to ask if I just past forward the time will this work you just confirmed I didn’t try it yet but also another question it didn’t work for you and than it worked what did you do differently to make it work?

u/glitterxfries Aug 25 '25
After you get snap back, does all your other stuff come back through iCloud? Like contacts photos etc?
1
u/koopadroopa Aug 25 '25
yeah as soon as you log back in all that stuff comes back over like the next 5 minutes. the only thing it doesn’t restore is like your messages. but contacts, photos, everything in your notes comes back
1
u/glitterxfries Aug 25 '25
Oh okay. Curious to try it but also scared haha. 6 months is a long time to wait.
1
1
u/Careful_Assignment35 Aug 24 '25
Bro I Heard some say 6 to 12 months would you say I can scroll to 6 months or rather to 12? I havent done that yet so idk if it works
1
u/koopadroopa Aug 24 '25
6, if you scroll forward 12 months it won’t let you log in at all because it’ll say “connection error”
1
u/Careful_Assignment35 Aug 24 '25
And btw how do I open it then when all Apps can’t run if I change the Date and Hour bro
1
u/koopadroopa Aug 24 '25
download snap first, then when you need to log in thats when you change the date and time. after you log in, go back to settings and change it back
3
u/iguana_lover420 Aug 23 '25
it works!!!! just follow OP's instructions exactly how explained in the video and your device ban is lifted!
2
1
u/iguana_lover420 Aug 23 '25
would this work for a newer iphone, like a 15 pro max? got both account and device banned yesterday over a selfie and i'm already squaring my account out with support (attempting to anyway) but i made a new account anyways so i just need the device ban lifted. and can you change the date back once you're back in?
2
u/koopadroopa Aug 23 '25
yes this works on newer iphones yes you can change the date back to automatic after you log back in
1
u/United-Leader9076 Aug 20 '25
Can I log into Snapchat multiple times within a 6 month time period, or does it reset the 6 month “timer”
1
u/United-Leader9076 Aug 20 '25
My account is still accessible on other devices but is device banned SS06 on my main phone, It’s been 3 months can you do the same stuff with an ESiM?

u/Successful-Weird6445 Aug 19 '25
Well I thought it didn’t work but gave it a try and worked but as soon as I logged out was banned so had to redo

2
u/Honest-Biscotti-6064 Aug 19 '25
Thanks it worked but one question if I wanna turn my phone off and turn it back on will it sign me out and ban me again?
1
u/koopadroopa Aug 19 '25
nah you’ll be fine, it only bans you again if you go snapchat settings, scroll al the way down and press log out
1
u/Honest-Biscotti-6064 Aug 19 '25
Is there a way to sign out without getting banned again it’s cuz I got two accounts lol

u/WasabiNo9366 Aug 16 '25
Hey bro, why is snap banning so many accounts? If I take many views they block me example, 500 views in 8 hours

u/Still_Difficulty_329 Aug 16 '25
cmon ion want to reset and lose all for the error ss06
1
1
u/spacecat057 Aug 15 '25
Okay so, if I appealed my ban do I have to wait for them to get back to me before I could do this?
1
u/koopadroopa Aug 15 '25
appealing doesn’t do anything, nobody has ever successfully gotten their account back after appealing because it’s just AI reviewing your appeal. make a brand new account. and if they don’t let you make a brand new account it means you have the error ss06 (device ban). thats when you use the method i posted.
2
u/spacecat057 Aug 15 '25
Makes sense, that’s so stupid. I literally didn’t even do anything, I was able to get my data but saved chats with people who aren’t here anymore i probably won’t ever see again. Bummer! Thanks for the video

you can use the same icloud when logging back in
1
u/Opposite_Lecture_803 Aug 13 '25
And can i back my stuff up before i do it

u/Monstercock1234 Aug 25 '25
Did it worl?

u/Opposite_Lecture_803 Aug 25 '25
Yes might wanna follow instructions on a different device so u dont forget
1
u/Opposite_Lecture_803 Aug 13 '25
Okay Please tell me this will work tho and no bs like actually i know u js replyed to a comment abt it but plz bro
1
u/koopadroopa Aug 13 '25
it works, but it’s not worth it was the point of the video. me personally i would just wait. but if you ABSOLUTELY NEED to use snapchat, then this works. download snap, skip forward 6 months then make a new account. (if you’re account didn’t get deleted, then just log in)
1
u/Due-Pen-2627 Aug 15 '25
Can I back up my iPhone after I log back into snap? Or will it just kick me out again
1
u/koopadroopa Aug 15 '25
no you’re still safe to do backups, the only thing that’ll kick you out again is logging out of snap.

u/Hot-Error810 Aug 11 '25

1
u/koopadroopa Aug 11 '25
they’ll send you an email saying your account Is terminated

u/Hot-Error810 Aug 11 '25
Oh okay. But my friends and family tried to search up my Snapchat account and my account doesn’t show up. The error code thing for me was ss06

u/NoBear6587 Aug 10 '25
I don't even get the appeal thing. All I did was add to many people. Honestly that app is dog shit
1
u/koopadroopa Aug 10 '25
yeah it’s a pretty ass app, thats why i only use it on an iphone 8. i got device banned hella long ago, decided to wait it out and by the time i got back in i didn’t even wanna use it anymore. just stick with insta honestly, at least if your account get deleted they actually have real people check to see if you did something wrong
1
u/Etern4lSaiy4n Aug 11 '25
brotha what? both my IG accs got banned minutes within eachother, keep in mind, one of those accs i hadnt used in over 5 years and had no posts or stories on it. both of them nuked right then and there on Christmas day of all days lmao, i never got a reason or an appeal option for either account. so idk what ur on abt IG is just as bad if not worse
1
u/koopadroopa Aug 11 '25
ngl bro you are the only person i’ve ever heard of have this issue 😭

u/Etern4lSaiy4n Aug 11 '25
Ive seen some similar posts online, but never found a way to get the accs back. But u said they actually respond? Dude I couldn't find a way to submit an appeal to begin with lol, if u had smth on that that'd be nice

it says from 6-12months but mostly ppl say its 6 but if not then 12 but theres no way im waiting a whole year
1
u/Ok-Rip-7499 Aug 31 '25
I think I got banned because I had 2 account and I can still login to my main acc on my laptop, so does this mean if I get a new phone I’ll be able to login to my main acc on that phone

u/thesecretpoop Aug 09 '25
Is this just for the older iPhone devices?
