There are many ways to unlock iPhone when you forgot the passcode without restoring it. Mostly I prefer two easy ways to restore it that is Using Siri and Using iCloud. Using Siri is a long process but using iCloud its little bit simple. The methods are discussed here.
Method 1- Using iCloud
Using iCloud 1st need to sign in to your iCloud account. Then navigate to Find My iPhone, click on All Devices where to view a devices list. Select your iPhone from the list of devices and then click Erase iPhone. This will delete your iPhone, and the passcode will also be removed. After that, you can create your new passcode.
Method 2- Using Siri
Step 1
First you need to activate Siri tapping your home screen and ask to display the time. Then open the World clock feature and add another clock through plus(+) icon.
Step2
After that you need to type some text in search city search box, and then select it all. And tap on an option in the drop-down list named as Share. A list will be displayed to you.
Step 3
Select the Message app from the list and write a new message. Then enter some random characters in the To field and press Return. The text will turn to green. Next you will have to select plus (+) icon and then tap Create new contact. Hit on “Add photo” while creating a new contact.
Step 4
Select choose photo from the menu and then open your photo library. After 4-5 seconds, you need to press the home button this will take you directly to the Home screen where we can directly change our passcode.
