I was locked out of my iphone and had to change the password on iPad. I've been able to log into icloud using the new password but when I try on my iphone, it won't work and now it's looking me out for an hour. What am I doing wrong? Shouldn't my new password that I created on my iPad work on my iPhone? Please help... thanks!
iPhone 11 Pro
Passcodes on separate devices, such as iPad and iPhone, are independent of each other; they are not synchronised between devices. You can be manually set the same Passcode on each device, but they are otherwise unrelated.
By contrast, your AppleID and associated Password are common to all devices that are logged-in with the same AppleID.
I hope this clarification is helpful to you.
