Показать описание
If you own an iPhone or any Apple device, you should set this up immediately! Recovery Contacts and Legacy Contacts could be hugely beneficial when you need them.

Recovery Contacts allow you to choose a designated family member or friend to help you unlock or change your Apple ID password if you are locked out of if it was forgotten.

Legacy Contacts allow a family member or loved one to access your Apple ID information and data if someone were to unfortunately pass away.

In this in-depth video, we walk through the process of how to setup both of these contacts using an iPhone or a Mac computer and also look at other features such as setting up a Recovery Key.

Whenever I click the link to accept it just brings me to an Apple support site page even though I meet all the prerequisites listed?

This recovery process is only when someone forgets their Apple ID password or can this also be used when someone forgets their iPhone passcode to unlock Face ID? I’m at the 3 hour countdown and can’t remember my new passcode I created to unlock my iPhone. If this recovery process works for device passcodes at what point can I start the recovery process? When I’m completely locked out? Thank you.
