IOS 17 MAKES IT EASIER TO UNLOCK YOUR IPHONE AFTER FORGETTING THE PASSCODE

Hi friends, At  WWDC 2023, Apple brought out a lot of updates to its existing lineup of products and services.Apple also announced a big update to its mobile operating system, iOS 17. The new operating system is packed with features designed to redefine your iPhone experience.

Wondering what new features iOS 17 bring to the table? Well, there are a lot. But one interesting feature of the new OS is that it allows you to unlock your phone after forgetting its password. However, you do have to be quick about it. Still, compared to the old process, the new password recovery is much easier.

How Does the New Password Recovery Feature In iOS 17 Work?

On iOS 16, you can only get to your phone through the Face ID or a specific passcode. And if you forget your passcode, you will be locked out of your phone after restarting it. There’s a way to recover your phone, but it’s a little painstaking process. You need to go through a lot of steps. Well, iOS 17 has made things simple.

Basically, on iOS 17, you will be given an option to quickly reset your password after you forget it. But there’s a catch. It only works within 72 hours of setting a new password. In simpler terms, you can not take advantage of the feature if you have not changed the phone password within 72 hours.

Moreover, to recover your phone, iOS 17 will ask for your old password. If you can not enter that correctly, you will not find the option to set a new password. And in that case, you will need to go through the old process, which is to put the phone in recovery mode and restore the device. So, in comparison, the new process is easier
