Unlocking phone
Help! My kids got my phone and now it is locked. I can't figure out how to unlock it and don't want to delete anything by resetting it
iPhone 5c, iOS 10
Question marked as
If it shows disabled the only way to unlock it is to restore it to factory settings, which will delete everything on it. However, after doing that you can restore your most recent backup, which will be less than a day old if you have enabled automatic daily backups.
