What to do if you forget your iPhone restrictions passcode?

There are many important passwords in the iPhone, such as iPhone lock password, Apple ID account and password, restrictions passcode, email password and other app password. If we don't record them, it's easy to forget some passwords. But there are some tips to help us solve the password problem. This article will tell you what to do if we forget the iPhone password restrictions.

Restricted passwords are used to control the use of home devices. For example, limit the time a child plays a game or social application, or restrict a child from opening some adult websites. There are two solutions to solve this issue: Bypass the password or recover the password.

1. Bypassing passwords by restoring or removing iPhone

From Apple Office documents, if you made a backup before you set your passcode, you can choose to restore from the iTunes or iCloud backup. It can fit not only the restrictions passcode, but also other iPhone passcode.

Here we have an iTunes backup, so we can choose to restore from iTunes backup. (Please remember that all your current iOS data will be replaced by the the restored backup data.)

Connect the iPhone with the computer(Turn off Find My iPhone on iPhone settings) -> then click the iPhone icon in iTunes -> click Restore Backup... -> Choose iTunes backup to restore.

If you don't have a backup before you forgot your passcode, you need to erase the iOS device, which will delete all of your iOS data and settings. Go to iPhone Settings -> General -> Reset -> Erase All Content and Settings
