The upcoming iOS 17 update for Apple’s iPhones, expected to drop in mid-September 2023, is bringing a host of changes and new features. However, one update, in particular, could end up being one of the best features that you’ll hopefully never have to use.

iOS 17 will have a new feature that allows users up to 72 hours to change their passcode back to the previous version if they forget the new one. According to MacRumors, the option is given if you type in an incorrect passcode. ‘Forgot Passcode?’ will appear at the bottom of the lock screen. and tapping it brings you to another screen with ‘Try Passcode Reset.’ If you tap this option, you can input your previous code, then create a new one.
