Forgot your LG phone password or PIN to unlock the device? You’re not alone; it happens to many of us. In this guide, we’ll cover different methods to unlock the LG Q31 when you’ve forgotten your password, without losing data or performing a factory reset.
Security features on any device are an essential factor these days. LG devices are well-known for their innovative and extensive security and privacy features. The easiest way to protect your device is with a screen lock. This includes a security pattern and a 4-digit PIN, which represent a medium level of security. For higher security, you can use a longer password or biometric data. The most common biometric unlock options on LG phones are fingerprint sensors and face ID (facial recognition). Biometric screen unlock options may vary depending on the model of your phone or tablet.
With our brand-new tool, PassLess, you can unlock any LG locked screen within 5 minutes or less, without losing data, performing a factory reset, installing any app on your device, or connecting your device to a computer. PassLess works entirely online through your browser.
Besides showing you how to use our tool, we’ll also cover various methods to unlock the LG Q31 if you’ve forgotten your password or pattern lock. Let’s get started!
