Unlock A70

[Maryamaa]

Hi all,

This is urgent, I use fingerprint to unlock my phone usually, but it asked for authentication, so I had to use the pattern, but it seems like I forgot it now I can't unlock the phone and I don't want to lose the data.

Tried with find my device, but it doesn't show the unlock option any more, does anyone know a way or to change to pin instead of pattern ?

Hey there and welcome to the Samsung UK Community Forum

Sorry to hear of your issues.

I'm not sure if this will work but it does on my S24 Ultra. From the lock screen, press on the screen and swipe a short distance. If you have a pin set up, hopefully this will give you the option to enter your pin.
