If you've forgotten your Screen Time passcode on iOS devices (iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch), you can reset it by following these steps:
1. **Backup Your Device**: Before resetting the Screen Time passcode, it's a good idea to back up your device using iCloud or iTunes/Finder on your computer. This ensures that you won't lose any important data.
2. **Disable Find My iPhone/iPad**: If Find My iPhone/iPad is enabled on your device, you'll need to turn it off temporarily. Go to Settings > [Your Name] > Find My > Find My iPhone/iPad, then toggle off the switch.
3. **Reset All Settings**: To reset the Screen Time passcode, you'll need to reset all settings on your device. Go to Settings > General > Reset.
4. **Enter Device Passcode**: You may be prompted to enter your device passcode to proceed with resetting all settings. Enter the passcode when prompted.
5. **Confirm Reset**: After entering your device passcode, you'll see a warning message informing you that resetting all settings will erase all customized settings, including Wi-Fi passwords, wallpaper, and passcodes. Tap "Reset All Settings" to confirm.
6. **Wait for the Device to Restart**: Your device will restart after resetting all settings. This process may take a few minutes to complete.
7. **Set Up Your Device Again**: After the device restarts, you'll need to go through the initial setup process again. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up your device, including connecting to Wi-Fi, signing in with your Apple ID, and restoring from your backup if desired.
8. **Enable Find My iPhone/iPad (Optional)**: Once your device is set up, you can re-enable Find My iPhone/iPad if you previously turned it off. Go to Settings > [Your Name] > Find My > Find My iPhone/iPad, then toggle on the switch.
9. **Set a New Screen Time Passcode**: After resetting all settings, your Screen Time passcode will be removed, and you'll need to set a new one. Go to Settings > Screen Time > Turn on Screen Time > Use Screen Time Passcode to set a new passcode.
Remember to choose a passcode that you can easily remember or store it securely. If you forget your Screen Time passcode again in the future, you'll need to repeat these steps to reset it.
