Is there a way to reset the Passcode on my old iPhone SE 2nd gen without deleting the data on it?

Hello. I broke my old iPhone SE 2 almost 2 years ago and recently I fixed it and found that I forgot my password and trying to remember it I exceeded the number of available unlock attempts. There are many photos and videos left on this phone that I would like to access. And according to the information from the official website, I can only reset my phone, deleting all the information contained in it. This does not suit me, so I want to ask you to provide access to my information in my phone or get new attempts to unlock my phone.

Sorry, but Apple does not have a way to unlock the Passcode either. That is only information that you would know. It will require the phone to be wiped in order to reset the Passcode, but as long as it was backed up to iCloud or a computer, you can restore all data back to the device.


If using iCloud Photo, all pictures will be able to be accessed at iCloud.com.
