Passcode not recognised
Has my iPhone been hacked as my 6 dig passcode is no longer recognised! I can't open my phone unless I leave it on & cannot update it! 😬

You are welcome.
If you get to a point where the passcode does not work and you have locked yourself out (iPhone disabled) OR you just want to reset the passcode, then You will have to reset the passcode to your iPhone by following the instructions in this guide published by Apple 👉 If you forgot the passcode or if your iPhone has been disabled. You will need a computer to execute this procedure and all the data on your iPhone will be erased.
Hopefully, you have a backup created on 👉 iCloud and/or on a computer. If you do then, you can 👉Restore your iPhone from the backup file once your passcode has been reset and the iPhone has been returned to factory settings by the procedure in the link above.
If your iPhone or iPad has iOS 15.2 or higher installed, then review this guide published by Apple 👉 How to reset your iPhone when you forgot the passcode.

No, it is not hacked. I, however, cannot explain why your passcode is no longer recognized. Has your iPhone been disabled after attempting too many tries with the wrong passcode?
Axel F.
no I've only tried it three times, a bit nervous to try too many times & lock myself out!
thanks for the quick response.
