Hi, in a moment of red rage I changed the screentime passcode for my sons iPhone . Now that the rage has subsided, rage about all the workarounds he has managed to find to bypass all screentime restrictions, I can not remember the passcode. duh. So he has his workaround and I have not more access. duh.
I can not reset his to factory settings with out this passcode.
What now ? Any Ideas ?
thanks
Sarah
Have you tried Face ID? From the article below.
To change or turn off the passcode on your child's device, tap Settings > Screen Time > [your child's name]. Then tap Change Screen Time Passcode or Turn Off Screen Time Passcode, and authenticate the change with Face ID, Touch ID, or your device passcode.

Try restoring to a backup you took before you set the code, or just reset it to factory defaults : erase your device, then set it up as a new device
Hey, thanks, but ... I would like to reset to factory defaults, but can't because it is asking for the screentime passcode ...
Follow the instructions in that link, and don't restore to a backup
THANK YOU !!! This was THE solution.
You are welcome.
screentime passcode forgotten
