iPhone 6

my friend forgot his Apple ID password and he’s trying to get into a new iPhone but cannot because they’re saying he has to wait 21 days for recovery options and he cannot wait that long. What to do ?

Unless he can remember the password or recover it using the links below, all he can do is wait. The Recovery Process is an automated process and can only be stopped if he can remember the password and sign in.


Enter the Apple (iCloud) ID and click Forgot Password.
