How to bypass iPhone 7 passcode or remove the passcode on iPhone running iOS 11 or a later version? The answer is to use iTunes to unlock iPhone without passocde. If you use iTunes to restore the iPhone in the recovery mode, which will install the latest version of iTunes on the iOS device, you erase all data from the device, including the lock screen password.

It's clear that using iTunes will completely wipe out the iPhone. If you have backed up your iPhone before, you can restore the data from the backup. If you have no backup available, you will lose all the content and settings on the iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch.

Knowledge Base: Why Can't You Remove Apple ID from the Device

Using Apple ID and its password is considered the ultimate way to protect your privacy. For data security on iOS devices, Apple won't allow others to hack your iDevice by removing your Apple ID and the password. Most of the programs that can bypass the iPhone passcode generally can't bypass Apple ID. If some program can do it, that's because it downgrades the device to an earlier version that has a bug via which your iPhone can be hacked. We disapprove of any type of iPhone hacking like this.
