To reset the Screen Time password on your personal iPhone follow these steps:


...

  1. Open the Settings app, then tap Screen Time. 
  2. Tap Manage Screen Time. 
  3. Tap Change Screen Time Passcode, then tap Change Screen Time Passcode again. If asked, enter the Apple Account email address and password that you used to set up the Screen Time passcode.
  4. Enter a new Screen Time passcode, then enter it again to confirm. 


It’s recommended that you don’t skip adding a Screen Time Passcode Recovery. That way, if you forget your Screen Time passcode, you can use your Apple Account to reset it. If you have more than one Apple Account, you must use the same account you entered when you set up the Screen Time Passcode Recovery.
