How can I reset my password if I forget what it is to unlock my phone

I got an iPhone and set up a lock code on the phone and set it up under my same iCloud as my other iPhone but I let it go dead and now I can’t remember what it is to unlock it is there a way I can reset it besides going to get a computer and connecting it to iTunes?

If your device has iOS 15.2 or later installed, you can reset it without a computer; check out this link→How to reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when you forgot your passcode - Apple Support. Otherwise you will need a computer:

See this Apple support link→If you forgot the passcode on your iPhone, or your iPhone is disabled - Apple Support

Or watch this companion video ⬇️



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