what to do if you forgot your screentime code

I forgot my screen time passcode on my phone, a video said to reset the phone, but you need the code for that. It is a huge problem for me, can somebody give me answers ASAP? (I’m on my iPad right now)

iPhone 6s

If you forget your 4 digit Screen Time Passcode


4 Digit Passcode is for Screen Time Restrictions

6 Digit Passcode is for iPhone lock screen


f you can't remember a restrictions passcode that you set on a previous version of iOS, or you forgot your Screen Time passcode, you need to erase your device, then set it up as a new device to remove the passcode.


Restoring your device from a backup won't remove your passcode.
