My iPhone says "Security Lockout" and won't let me enter a password to get in; how do I open my phone without erasing it?
iPhone XR, iOS 15
I woke up this morning to see the Security lockout my iphone, even without attempting any wrong passwords, if my iPhone had disabled for 5 minutes to 1 hour as usual I don't think this should've occurred, I think this is a malfunction
Mine has now been in lock out mode on 2 occasions in last few weeks when I wake up. So not due to incorrect entry of security code. Is this a bug with the current software version?
No, it’s probably a hardware failure. Unless someone is playing with your phone while you’re asleep.
There is no way to do so. I’m sorry, but anything on the device that wasn’t backed up or synced to the cloud is gone.
