Restrictions passcode

I put restrictions on my old iPhone and forgot the passcode. All the same restrictions transferred to my new iPhone and I still can’t figure out what the passcode is. Is there a way to bypass the passcode and reset the restrictions??

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.


If you have updated to 13.4 AND HAD SETUP THE PASSCODE while using iOS 13.4 then follow these instructions ➔ If you forgot your Screen Time passcode - Apple Support
