My daughter used to have an iphone 8. She upgraded to a 12 and the old 8 stayed on a drawer. Now I tried to use it, but we don't remember the passcode and she removed it from her account, so we are hitting a wall. Is there a way to access the phone? I tried itunes, but it didn't work and now the phone has a white screen with "Press home to recover" but when pressed, it ask for the passcode, which we don't remember.
