iphone 8 passcode

Twice now my touch ID hasn't worked and it asks for my 4 digit passcode. It won't unlock when I put my passcode in that I have been using for 6 yrs. Thefirst time it happened I had to completely reset my phone. I don't want to have to do this every week. Is there a fix???

iPhone 8, iOS 12

If you forgot the passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled

Just follow the restore procedure, and if it happens for a third time something is wrong because passcodes don’t change themselves. Three strikes, Contact Support and get your iPhone checked for hardware problems
