How can I unlock my old iPhone 7 using my new iPhone 11?

i can’t remember my passcode for my iPhone 7, but it’s connected to my iPhone 11. Is there any way that I can solve the problem with my iPhone 7 using my new phone?

Sorry, but no.


Maybe best to not think about this for a few hours, so hopefully you can remember the passcode for the iPhone 7.


If you can't, then unfortunately you will have to erase / reset the phone and then set it up again. If you have a current backup of the phone, you can use that to restore the data back to the phone during the new setup.
