To remove a passcode from an iPhone, you can do the following: 


  1. Go to Settings
  2. Tap Face ID & Passcode if your iPhone has Face ID, or Touch ID & Passcode if your iPhone has a Home button
  3. Tap Turn Passcode Off
  4. Enter your passcode
  5. Enter your Apple ID password
  6. Tap Turn Off in the top right corner
  7. Enter your passcode again to confirm


But....before you do this....please understand that now, anyone who picks up your phone will have complete access to your personal data on the phone and they will also be able to lock you out of your own phone.
