What Password Is Needed to Update iOS?
Contents

Apparently, the restriction code is set by the latest iOS update. When asked, enter in restriction code 123456 for six-digit requests and 1234 for four-digit requests–it appears these are the default settings. Then make sure you reset the iPhone passcode to something else and take note of that passcode.

How do I find my passcode for Apple updates?

On devices without Touch ID, go to Settings > Passcode. Tap Turn Passcode On. Enter a six-digit passcode. Or tap Passcode Options to switch to a four-digit numeric code, a custom numeric code, or a custom alphanumeric code.

What password do I use to update iOS?

1 Try the Default Password

You can try to use the default passcode. The restriction code is usually set by the update, it is supposed to ensure that no one other than the original owner or someone with the original owner’s permission can use the device. The default passcode is 123456 or 000000.
