Pop up message

I am getting a pop up message on my iPhone to change my unlock password. Initially gave me a 1 hour time limit, now I cannot get rid of the message or use my phone. Message says to change passcode now. I have updated iOS, and I’ve tried deleting safari history

Password countdown message on iphoneX Hi, I got a countdown message today telling me I had 60 minutes to change my passcode. I did some searching and found that it may be a bug relating to safari so I deleted my history and cookies, restarted, and waited for the message to reach zero. I'm passed zero and I've got the option to use my phone for emergency calls only or to change my passcode. What is this and what can I do?

Has nothing to do with Safari.

Do you have a work email on the phone? That may require you to change the passcode.
