Part 1. Unlock iPhone 15 without Face ID or Passcode by Security Lockout

Tip 1. Erase iPhone 15 to Remove Face ID or Passcode (iOS 15.2 and Later)

You have a chance to unlock your screen lock on your iPhone 15 itself. When you incorrectly enter the screen passcode many times until your iPhone becomes unavailable, there will be an Erase iPhone option on the Security Lockout screen. For iOS 17, you will see "Forgot Passcode?" and then tap Start iPhone Reset. Then, you are required for the Apple ID password to erase all your data. By doing so, your iPhone can be unlocked without Face ID or screen passcode.

Tip 2. Reset Passcode after Changing It within 72 Hours (iOS 17 Only)

Some of you change the screen passcode but forget it after a few hours. In iOS 17, Apple allows you to reset the passcode after changing it within 72 hours. As long you haven't expired the previous passcode, you can effortlessly create a new screen passcode using the old one. Identical to the former tip, you need to continuously enter the wrong passcode until it shows iPhone Unavailable or Security Lockout. Then, tap "Forgot Passcode", select Try Passcode Reset, type in your previous passcode, and set up a new one. Hence, the new passcode unlocks your iPhone 15 without Face ID.
