A lot of people use the last 4 of their SSN. My parents use their atm PIN number.

Maybe you can reset the iCloud password? If you have access to email and her phone to get the two factor authentication code they text that might get you in there.

Did she use google photos by any chance? It automatically backs up pictures.

The carrier has nothing to do with the iPhone password or iCloud.

I would still call Apple. They can’t unlock the phone but maybe she had the photos in an iCloud account.

What model iPhone? Older ones have less digits.

Try and find out her ATM password. After that try the easy ones - 1111, 0000, 1234, etc.
Apple isn't going to be able to help, unfortunately.

As for passwords...think about old phone numbers, addresses, etc. If you can learn some other passwords she had at work or whatever you might be able to guess it.

This is what I was thinking too. That Apple won’t be of any help.

Have you tried her birthdate?
Thanks. I have tried hers and all her nephew’s DOB. I was then locked out for a few days. That was a month ago and I haven’t been able to get myself to turn the phone on again. Will try the niece’s soon. Thanks again.

I’d schedule an appointment at an Apple store or just walk in and explain

My sister passed away a few months ago. She didn’t have a spouse or kids (she was 28). I have her phone. I would love to get the photos from the phone as she had a lot of pics with my kids. I don’t have password and she didn’t back up to a computer, only iCloud. Is there anything I can do to get the pictures?
