Tap Settings

Tap Face ID & Passcode

Tap Turn Passcode Off


Unfortunately, now anyone who picks up your phone will have access to all of your personal data on the phone


Here, I am assuming that you know the Passcode. If what you are really saying is that you forgot your Passcode....then you will need to use this Apple Support document to reset your Passcode.


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


This will erase all of the data on your iPhone, but you can restore from your current backup.
