Hey everyone, I just got a new iPhone 16 Pro Max, and I set a lock screen password but totally forgot it. I didn't set up an Apple or iCloud account either. What can I do to unlock my phone?

So, do you have access to a Windows computer? You can use iTunes to connect your phone and reset it. Just make sure to back up any data if you can, but I know it’s tough since you’re locked out!
If you have a computer, you can try erasing the device from there. Even if you haven't set up iCloud, you can still use iTunes on Windows or Apple Configurator 2 on macOS to reset it. Just remember that this will erase everything on your phone.
First off, if you bought it from an authorized Apple store, they might be able to help you reset that lock screen password. Just swing by and explain the situation! They should have the tools to help you out without much hassle.
