unhook
Free the latch
To unhook is to detach something from a hook or similar fastener: She unhooked her bra, He unhooked the trailer from the truck.
The word implies releasing a connection that was secured by a curved or latching mechanism.
Figuratively, to unhook from something is to disengage or disconnect: I need to unhook from social media for a while.
