My phone glitched and it disabled my Face ID and locked me out of my iphone 13 and is now saying my passcode is wrong and my iPhone is disabled. I did not back up my data and I can’t get into my phone. What can I do? I do not want to erase my data
iPhone 13
It’s too late; your data is already gone. Backups are for before disaster strikes, after is too late. Which is a shame because you could have just turned on automatic backups, which would have created a new backup overnight whenever the phone was plugged in and connected to Wi-Fi.
Here is all you can do now. If your device has iOS 15.2 or later installed, check out this link→How to reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when you forgot your passcode - Apple Support. Otherwise:

After restoring the phone using one of the methods above you can restore your most recent backup.

Click here and follow the instructions. Restoring the iPhone requires plugging it into a computer with iTunes installed, or a Mac running Catalina or newer.
There isn't any way to recover the data from a disabled unit.
