1. Backup recovery with iTunes
This method is the most commonly used one, but it has a necessary prerequisite that the iPhone to be unlocked must have synchronized with iTunes to back up data before. If your iPhone meets this condition, you can connect your iPhone with the computer that has previously connected to iTunes again and wait for iTunes to synchronize and back up. If iTunes requires you to enter a password, this method is not applicable; However, if iTunes does not require you to enter a password, you can select "Restore from iTunes Backup" in the Settings tab of iTunes. After the synchronized backup is restored, you can reset the iPhone password.
