When we start our mobile for the first time, one of the first things we must do before we even start using it is to choose a password or pattern to unlock the device. In this way, we avoid that our most important data and private information are objects of prying eyes.

Many users do not know how to act in case they do not remember the password and have failed the three attempts that the mobile usually offers to unlock it. Luckily, there are solutions that we can access before the panic takes hold of us, or it occurs to us to take it to a technical service. We can always see and manage the passwords of our Android mobile, but the problem comes with unlocking when we need more advanced methods.

Unlock Android Mobile

PhoneRescue

This free application for Android that allows you to unlock Sony Xperia safely without loss of data, being compatible with almost all Android models, including Samsung, LG, Google, Huawei, etc.

To do this, we only have to download it to the computer, run it and then connect our mobile to the computer via USB and choose the option “screen lock removal” and then “start unlocking”. Once unlocked, the phone will automatically restart, and we will have access to it.

Unlock mobile with iOS

Use iTunes

If we use iTunes to make our backup, we will have no problems unlocking the phone by performing a restoration. For this, we connect the device to the computer and open iTunes. We click on the option “Restore copy” and the mobile will be restored, and you can choose a new password.

Use iCloud

You can also unlock iPhone XR using iCloud and the “Find my iPhone” function. To do this, from a computer or another mobile access icloud.com/find and enter your Apple ID. Select your device and click on “Delete device”. This will remove both the password and all the data on the device, making it an effective but drastic option, since it will reset the mobile and you will have to reinstall a backup or reconfigure the mobile from scratch.
