How to completely wipe iPhone, 100% unrecoverable?

It is an indisputable fact that your iPhone probably contains valuable information. Your personal and work-related emails can be very important. You could also have certain passwords and access information to your iPhone that you do not want to fall into the wrong hands. It is also true that you could have your personal banking information on your iPhone that you do not want anyone to find out about.

The problem is that you may want to delete or sell your old iPhone because you want to buy a new one, but you are skeptical that this information falls into the wrong hands. Therefore, you need a tool that will allow you to permanently delete this data from your phone.

Part 1. The common way people wipe their iPhone (Not Permanent)
Step 1: Go to the Settings app on your iPhone and then tap General.
Step 2: Go to the bottom to find "Reset" and press it.
Step 3: Then touch "Erase all contents and settings".
Step 4: Click "Erase iPhone" in the resulting window. You should press "Delete iPhone" twice to confirm that this is what you want to do.
Step 5: You may be prompted to enter the access code. This is to further confirm that you want to erase all your data.
Step 6: The final step is to enter your Apple ID password to remove your iPhone from "Find My iPhone" and turn off "Enable Secure".

But please note that some traces are still left on your iPhone hard drive, which means your data is recoverable if someone uses the right tool.
