How can I unlock my iPhone 15 if I forgot my passcode?

Hey everyone, I've run into a bit of a snag with my iPhone 15—I'm currently locked out because I've completely forgotten my passcode. It's a situation I never thought I'd find myself in, but here I am, unable to access all my personal files, essential contacts, and important data that's stored on my device. I've been racking my brain trying to remember the passcode, but no luck so far. It's crucial for me to regain access to my iPhone as soon as possible. I've heard about some third-party tools and methods that might work, but I'm not sure where to start or what's safe to use. Any guidance or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

You might try iTunes Recovery Mode: If you've ever synced your iPhone with iTunes, this could be your ticket in. You'll need to put your iPhone into Recovery Mode and then connect it to the computer you've synced with. iTunes will give you the option to restore your iPhone, which wipes the data along with the passcode. The silver lining? If you've got backups, you can restore your data from there.

I know this method but I don't want to lose my important data, is there any other method?
