Forgetting your OPPO phone’s lock screen password can be stressful, especially when it prevents you from accessing important data. Fortunately, OPPO offers built-in recovery options for most ColorOS versions that help you unlock your device while protecting your personal information. This guide will walk you through step-by-step instructions based on your ColorOS version.


Note: If your phone is still accessible via fingerprint or face recognition, back up your important files first. You may lose all data during the recovery process. 


Recovery Options by ColorOS Version

The linked guides offer clear, step-by-step instructions tailored to different ColorOS versions, whether you’re using an older or newer device. These resources explain how to safely recover access while protecting your personal data. Go to the link to explore your recovery options. Not sure what ColorOS version you have? follow the "ColorOS 11 and above " solution.

Note: OPPO devices require the lock screen password after 72 hours of inactivity or after a restart. For safety, OPPO disables some features if an incorrect password is entered too many times.
