My apple 14 was locked, I recovered it , your going to need a pc, or laptop, you can’t do it with your phone , and log on as if you were logging in to your phone! It took me all day to get into mine! But if you don’t and use the recovery on your phone it could take a week to get it on, plus you’ll lose all your important stuff, documents, pictures all of your data gone. So I’d use a computer or laptop top to recover it and you’ll be able to keep all your stuff and use it today
