Hi
To change your iPhone passcode from 6 digits back to 4 digits, follow these steps:
1. Open Settings on your iPhone.
2. Scroll down and tap Face ID & Passcode (or Touch ID & Passcode if you’re using an older model).
3. Enter your current 6-digit passcode when prompted.
4. Scroll down and tap Change Passcode.
5. You’ll be asked to enter your current passcode again.
6. After entering it, tap Passcode Options (this is where you can change the passcode settings).
7. Select 4-Digit Numeric Code.
8. Enter your new 4-digit passcode and then confirm it.
This should set your passcode back to 4 digits. If you don’t see the option for a 4-digit code, make sure you’re not using any features like iCloud Keychain or Apple Pay, as they might require a more secure passcode.
Hope this helps:)
