How to confirm iPhone passcode without password?
iPhone 8, iOS 14
Hello tajir114,
Based on your post, it sounds like you may some questions about your iPhone passcode. If you've forgotten your passcode, or it's not being accepted and the device is disabled, it will need to be erased. Options to erase the iPhone will vary depending on the iOS version installed.
If you're running iOS 15.2 or later, your device is connected to a Wi-Fi or cellular network, and you know your Apple ID and password, you can use the steps in How to remove your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch passcode without a computer to erase it.
"How to reset your device
If you're using an eSIM, contact your carrier before trying these steps and ask for a QR code to set up your eSIM again.
You can only reach the "Security Lockout" screen if you previously enabled Find My on your device. If you can't follow these steps, you can use a computer to reset your device."
If you're running an earlier version of iOS, then you'll need a computer to erase the device. Those steps can be found in If you forgot your iPhone passcode.
Restoring the device to factory settings erases all contents on the iPhone. After you complete these steps, you can restore a backup to bring back your settings and data. If a backup was not created, you'll want to set up the device as new and download any data you had syncing with iCloud. Find steps to restore a backup in Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup.
If you're having a different issue, let us know in more detail what's going on.
Regards.
