If you can access your phone via fingerprint or facial recognition, it's recommended to backup the important data at first.

1. Confirm whether the password has been changed

It is recommended to carefully recall whether anyone else has had access to your phone and changed the lock screen password, such as your friends or family members.

2. Check if you have enabled multi-user mode.
In multi-user mode, different users have different lock screen passwords. You can pull down the control center on the lock screen, tap the red profile picture, and then switch back to the "Owner" profile to try again.

During the reset process, if the old password is entered incorrectly 5 times, it will no longer be usable for the reset.
