I cannot access my iPhone device with my Lock Screen password

I changed my iPhone password and not up to an hour later I can’t use the new password I use to access my device. Of which I can still remember the password I used very well.

Hello~ Any help by clicking on below and reviewing?


If you see a iPhone, iPad, or Apple Vision Pro unavailable message or Security Lockout screen - Apple Support


If you forgot your iPhone passcode or your iPhone is disabled - Apple Support


Note once inside any of the articles above you may click on other highlighted tabs of interest for further information.
