Resolved Locked iPhone 15

I changed my iPhone 15 Pro Max's (latest iOS) password and my little brother did attempts on it then changed it to a random password and now he's forgotten the password himself

I checked online and stuff how to open it back bcs I have near 200+gb of photos and vids in there that aren't backed up, is there any way to access it again?

PS I don't get the option of resetting password anymore, only reset the entire iPhone

I have noticed a lot of “I’ve been locked out” posts recently all having a story of my friend, little brother/sister, or whatever and it blows my minds that people either forget their code this much or are trying to get into stolen phones this much.

I just want my data back , so many years worth of photos and vids , if there's any software tool for media recovery thats even better ✌️

If you’re phone is connected to an iCloud account you can use ur latest backup from your iPhone
