First, login iCloud and check if the data is backed up or not. Also try the password combinations you used frequently or ask the one who knew the password. However, please don't do this frequently as the device will be locked because of too many failed attempts.


If no vail, then try some dedicated software to do it. There are chances to unlock the device. You can take a look at this step-by-step guide: https://www.sysgeeker.com/blog/how-to-unlock-iphone.html


The last choice is to boot iPhone into Recovery mode and restore the iPhone. Unfortunately, all the user data and apps will be erased in this way.

Regarding your data…

  1. If you have an iCloud or iTunes latest backup, then there is nothing to worry about. If not read more...
