GUIDE: How to Unlock iPhone without Passcode and Face ID
In general, using a passcode, FaceID, or Touch ID to unlock your iPhone is simple. However, it's possible to occasionally misplace your passcode, have a malfunctioning iPhone, or have a locked, used phone. In these circumstances, you would need to unlock your iPhone using a different technique. In this piece, we'll go through three reliable techniques for unlocking an iPhone without a passcode or Face ID.
If Face ID doesn't work and you forget your passcode, you can unlock your iPhone using iCloud. Verify that your iPhone's Find My feature is activated before proceeding. Here's how to bypass the iPhone lock screen using Find My:
Step 1: Open a web browser on a trustworthy device (a PC, a tablet, or a smartphone) and go to iCloud.com/find/.
Step 2: Enter your Apple ID credentials after clicking Sign In.
Step 3: After hitting the "All Devices" button, pick your iPhone from the drop-down box that appears.
Step 4: Last but not least, choose Erase iPhone from the menu. If you sign in from a new device and have enabled two-factor authentication, you will need to enter your Apple ID password in addition to the six-digit verification code that is provided to your trusted devices. You can erase the iPhone after receiving confirmation.
Step 5. When a pop-up asks for your confirmation, click Erase.
Step 6: If prompted, type your Apple ID password again.
If you own an Apple Watch, you can unlock your iPhone without a passcode while keeping all of your data. This is one of the best ways to unlock an iPhone without a computer or Apple ID password.
Step 1: When your Apple Watch is on your wrist or nearby, tap your iPhone to wake it up. After that, swipe upward from the bottom.
Step 2: Check the passcode when your iPhone prompts you for it. If your Apple Watch is locked, you will be prompted to unlock it.
Step 3: Lastly, by taking a brief look at your phone, you can unlock your iPhone.
Step 4: When you're done, an Apple Watch notice with a link to lock the iPhone once more and a statement that your iPhone has been unlocked by this Apple Watch will display.
