how to unlock phone with broken screen...?

I fell down the stairs and my iPhone 12 pro max was damaged (bottom inch bent back 3/16" and screen cracked) the phone still works and gets incoming texts calls, etc. but I can't unlock the phone to respond or to do a backup to iTunes so I can get a replacement phone and restore. Siri works.


Any idea how to unlock my iPhone without using the screen?

You don’t.


You have to back it up before something goes catastrophically wrong, not after.
