Phone got locked

Hi My phone got locked shows disable because I forgot my passcode and I don't want to erase my phone because I have some data's I want to keep. Is there anyway could use my face ID to unlocked the phone instead of password ? or any other solutions to save my datas?


Thank you

Hold it Right There!

A. Getting Items Back:

Where items enabled in iCloud settings on your iPhone? If so, login to iCloud, and serif you can access them there. For photos, go here: https://www.icloud.com/photos


B. Being Locked Out...

Enter the passcode incorrectly too many times, and you'd likely be locked out for good. So, hold it right there, and refer to this link: If you Forgot the Passcode on your iPhone, or your iPhone is Disabled - Apple Support. It would be the one you've always entered. If you do not know it, then look for it in a location you may have stored it in.


No Success?

Phone calls are taking a bit to go through at the moment, due to lots of calls. With the Coronavirus Pandemic, many are at home at the moment, with much time on their hands to contact Apple. So, just stay on the line, and you will get through
