iPhone inaccessible for 8, after I forgot password

I forgot my password, after which I blocked my iPhone for 8 hours. The iPhone device is inaccessible, try again when 8 hours have passed. You can somehow reset the password without touching your data, that is, so that everything is not deleted, but only the password, please help

Hopefully, you have a current backup of your phone, because the process to reset the passcode on your phone will erase the data on the phone.
