The iPhone 12 Mini is cute, adorable, and wild,
so it's natural to panic when you forgot the passcode.
You'd want to try out all the possibilities in your memory in an effort to keep the data,
but if you have exhausted all the chances, here goes the connect to iTunes suggestion,
which rules out more passcode attempts.
Fortunately it's quite easy to permanently unlock the device without using the passcode at all,
In this video we'll show you how to pul it off with three simple methods.
Let's jump in!
The usual way to unlock an iPhone is using iTunes,
so once installed attach your phone into the computer then put it into Recovery mode,
for iPhone 12 Mini, is press and quickly release the volume up button,
then press and quickly release the
volume down button
then press and hold the power button till you see the connect to computer icon,
once detected, iTunes should suggest an update or restore,
we are going with the restore,
then hit restore and update to confirm
and agree to the terms and conditions
it's now downloading the iOS firmware,
you can proceed to restore once it finished.

If you have difficulty using iTunes, move on to the next one,
Erase iPhone in Find My iPhone on iCloud.
so open the browser on your computer, iPad or another iPhone,
then go to icloud.com,
put in your Apple ID and password to continue,
if you forgot these information, skip ahead to the next method,
now that you get in, go to Find iPhone,
then click all device on the top bar,
then select your device from the drop-down menu,
then go ahead and click on Erase iPhone,
input your apple id and password again to confirm,
after all these are set up, the Erase will start right away to remove the passcode.
If you don't remember the apple account, here is the third one
Unlock iPhone with 4uKey,
there's a link in the description below if you'd like to download.
So once installed, make sure your phone are still connected and in Recovery mode,
then go to the Unlock Lock Screen Passcode field,
hit start to continue,
here you will get the latest iOS firmware for the device,
just hit the download button,
Once downloaded, we can launch the removal,
make sure you are on a good network and keep the device attached during the entire process.
Well done, now it says the passcode has been removed successfully,
Seconds later, you'll see the Hello screen,
Now let's go ahead and set it up,
you can set your own passcode in this process or later.
So there it is, finally we did it.
That's it!
