Locked iPhone 13 without a passcode.

Hello

i started my new iPhone 13 device setup but didn’t finish.

when I got back to finish it up, my iPhone was locked and was demanding a passcode that I never set anytime during the start up.

Now I can’t operate the device anymore without a passcode which I don’t have.

what advice can you give. Thanks

iPhone 13

To unlock your iPhone, follow the steps described in the Apple article:

(< iOS 15.2) -> If you forgot your iPhone passcode

If you forgot your iPhone passcode - Apple Support

 

(iOS 15.2 and newer) you don’t need to have a computer -> If you see an iPhone or iPad unavailable message or Security Lockout screen

If you see an iPhone or iPad unavailable message or Security Lockout screen - Apple Support

 

Temporarily use your old passcode when you forget your new passcode on iPhone or iPad

  • In iOS 17, iPadOS 17, and later, Passcode Reset helps you maintain access to your phone if you forget your new passcode.
