Step 2: Here, select the Find iPhone option to unlock the iPhone password and disable the Find iPhone feature.

Step 4: In the right-hand browser dialog, select Erase iPhone to remotely wipe data. If you've backed up data to iCloud, you can restore it and set a new password after clearing all data.
Step 5: A small dialogue box appears, asking for your confirmation; press Erase to proceed with the iPhone wipe and password unlock when forgotten.

After choosing one of the options, the device will be restored from scratch, and you can set up the iPhone as a new device. With old data, you can restore it using iTunes or iCloud.
Method 4: Unlocking using Touch ID.
Since the iPhone 5S version onward, devices have been equipped with the Touch ID feature. Instead of unlocking with a password, users can unlock the screen using Touch ID. If you forget the passcode, you can unlock the iPhone by utilizing the previously set Touch ID.
Step 1: Firstly, choose to unlock with Touch ID. Then, go to the settings and navigate to the Find my iPhone section and turn it off. Enabling this feature will require your iCloud password, a crucial detail to be remembered and not forgotten. (Refer to additional steps for recovering a lost iCloud password)
Step 2: Enter the iCloud password and completely disable the Find my iPhone feature.
Step 3: Connect the phone to the computer, open iTunes -> select restore iPhone to reset the iPhone.
Step 4: Once completed, the passcode settings will be wiped. Now, you must set up the passcode for the iPhone again, as iPhones must use a passcode that cannot be bypassed.
