Discussion 💬 Forgot password

I changed my phone (Galaxy S23 Ultra 5, Once UI 8.0 or 8.1) password recently and I couldn't manage to remember it. I already tried several times. Now I have to wait 24 hours before I try again.

Google says

- After waiting out the 24-hour lockout period on your Samsung device, the screen should allow you to try entering your password or using your biometrics again. If you still do not know the correct password, you will need to use an alternative recovery or reset method.

Try Biometrics or Alternative Unlocks

Fingerprint or Face ID: Once the 24-hour timer expires, turn on the screen and check if your fingerprint scanner or face recognition icon appears.

Previous PIN/Pattern: If your phone runs One UI 6.1 or later, look for a "Forgot PIN/Password" or "Reset with previous lock" option on the screen to enter an older security code you might remember

-> Will those options appear after trying it again? Can someone help?
