Help! I forgot my iPhone password but don't want to reset my phone

Sorry, but you CANNOT recover a forgotten passcode. You will have erase your phone using your home computer with iTunes. If you have been backing up, you can restore from backup. If you haven't, your data is gone.

See this link for guidance --> If you forgot the passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support

There is NO other way.

Forgot (You need a computer to follow these steps. If you don't have a computer, borrow one from a friend,)

I am sorry, if you have forgotten your Lock Screen passcode and there is no backup, then all data is lost, if you have one, not to worry. But if you have forgotten the Screen Time Passcode and even if you have a backup everything is lost because restoring will bring back the screen time restrictions (Status Quo).

What you will get back is what you have synced to iCloud and uploaded to iCloud Drive; information already synced and stored in iCloud, like Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks, Mail, Notes, Voice Memos, shared photos, iCloud Photos *, Health data, call history, and files you store in iCloud Drive.

*-If you had turned on iCloud Photos, your content is automatically stored in iCloud.
