Broken screen 6S. Need Photos. I have a broken 6s Screen and can not enter my pin. I tried entering my pin and the phone automatically selected the wrong number, now my phone is saying 'disconnected......' I need to be able to access the photos I have stored on this phone as they were not saved on iCloud. What are my options? This phone is not under care. Can I take it somewhere and get the photos? Or would I have to get the screen replaced and then get the photos? I haven't allowed any computers to access my device either, I need to be able to get my pin entered to be able to access the phone, but the screen is broken over the numbers I need to enter. Help!

You can log in to https://icloud.com/find using any computer if Find my iPhone is enabled on the phone and it can power on. You put it in Lost Mode and then erase it.
