Memory problems? We will teach you how to unlock iPhone without password, with two different methods. A traditional way through iTunes and a modern one using a password unlocking program.
What happens if I enter the wrong password too many times?

- 6 attempts: “iPhone is disabled for 1 minute”
- 7 attempts: “iPhone is disabled for 5 minutes”
- 8 attempts: “iPhone is disabled for 15 minutes”
- 9 attempts: “iPhone is disabled for 60 minutes”
10 attempts: “iPhone is disabled. Connect to iTunes “ It could also happen that your iPhone completely erases all its information, if the option” Erase data “is activated. You can check it in: Settings & Touch ID and passcode (or Settings & Passcode for iPhones without Touch ID).
