There are codes for AirPlay and codes for Restrictions. Are you referring to Restrictions?

If you forgot the Restrictions PIN code, then you’ll have to guess right or reset the device to factory settings. It wouldn’t be much of a restriction if it could be easily circumvented.

AirPlay pairing codes (4 digits) would be random, and would be displayed on screen, to be copied to the other device.

AirPlay passwords would be more than 4 digits.
