i have forgoton restrictions password, how do you reset it?
iPad 2
This is the link to use to erase the iPad via iTunes: If you forgot the passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support
You cannot see OR edit your restrictions passcode. You MUST erase the device to remove it. And you cannot restore from a backup as the restrictions passcode IS contained in the backup. This would put you in a never ending cycle of disappointment.
While this link says for forgotten passcode, it is the same required action for forgotten Screen Time or Restrictions passcode. And this link is from Apple, not a 3rd party. If you called Apple, this is exactly what they would tell you to do.

Follow the steps posted many many times already in the very thread you posted in to remove it. You will need to restore the iPhone to factory settings.
Does NOBODY bother to read past the first post? Sigh........READ THE THREAD. You don't reset the restrictions passcode. You see the link about erasing your iPhone and setting it up as new, which has been posted multiple times in this thread.

What is my device restriction password
Nobody can tell you that. Only you know it, because you had to set it.
If yo don't t remember it, then follow the steps in the support document provided hundreds of times already in the very thread you replied to, including the Apple recommended post at the top of every page, to reset it.
I finally figured out how to fix this without resetting your phone!!! Go to Settings>General >Date & Time>Then change the time an hour ahead or whatever time frame it gave you to try again. Then go to Settings>Screen Time>Select Family Member>Change Screen Time Passcode. Create a new Passcode. Once you create one, you can either keep it on or turn it off.
This is a correct solution.
Please do tell people they are erasing all content by doing this.
It is a solution to delete restrictions, but at the same time, you are deleting all content of your iPhone.
You can use a Mac or a PC with iTunes on it, or if you have Find iPhone enabled on it you can try sending a remote wipe message via that

You don't. You'll need to restore the device. The instructions have been posted repeatedly in this 39 page thread.
See the link in the Apple Recommended solution. Click the link. Follow the directions.
Follow the steps here: link->If you forgot the passcode on your iPhone, or your iPhone is disabled - Apple Support
Hi according to ipaduser4321 the restriction code is set by latest ios update. When asked to enter restriction code enter 1234 which is the default setting. Then you can reset it to something else. I have tried this on 2 devices and it works. Online with Apple chat, they didn't know about it.

Restore your phone as new. The instructions have already been provided in this thread. If you'd read the thread before posting in it, you would have already known that, of course.

Follow the instructions already posted, if you have a backup taken when the code wasn't on the device you can restore to that, if you don't reset the device back to factory defaults
