Unlocking iPhone 8

Hi,


I had in my drawer an iPhone 8 and now I want to use it again (I have one additional number and I can use it for free). The problem is, that I can remember this 4 digit pass and I tried everything until the phone now is disabled and the message says that I should connect it to iTunes.

First of all, there are no iTunes anymore and also if there were, I would not have any backup or data of this phone on it.

So, is there a way to unlock an iPhone?


Regards,

Matej

Unfortunately, there is no way to unlock the phone without the 4-digit code. You will need to restore it to factory settings. If you use Windows, you can download iTunes from the Microsoft Store, if you use Mac, you can restore from the Finder.
