Screen says "iPhone unavailable"

My phone screen broke, and it kept pressing the passcode input. Now it displays 'iPhone Unavailable'. Can I fix it without losing my data, especially since I don't have back up.

Once the phone is unavailable, there is no access to the data. Since you do not have a backup, there is really no access to your data. You will have to restore the device to be able to use the device again and that will delete all of your data. If you see an iPhone, iPad, or Apple Vision Pro unavailable message or Security Lockout screen - Apple Support
