I set restrictions on my child's iphone, It now will not accept the password I set it up with, How to I retrieve the password or erase the restrictions from his phone?

Make sure to choose a passcode that's different from the passcode you use to unlock your device. If you can't remember a restrictions passcode that you set on a previous version of iOS, or you forgot your Screen Time passcode, you need to erase your device, then set it up as a new device to remove the passcode.


Restoring your device from a backup won't remove your passcode.
