Hi Everyone:
Does anyone know how to turn off passcode on an IPhone 4S? I am tired of having to type in a pass code everytime I want to unlock my phone. FYI, I am still using IOS 5.1.1 if that matters. Thanks.

Hi Marco:
Thanks for the instructions. Unfortunately it didn't work. When I get to the Passcode button it says "Passcode on". I double tap on it and this is what I get; the Passcode heading, a Cancel button, instructions telling me to type in a Passcode and a keyboard to type in the passcode. There are no other buttons to choose from. If anyone has any other tips or suggestions I would appreciate them. Thanks.

Hi Everyone:
I just wanted to let you all know that I figured out how to turn off Passcode. Here is what I did in case anyone else wants to turn of Passcode: 1. double tap on Passcode Lock On button, 2. enter current passcode in edit field, 3. the Passcode menu will come up, 4. double tap on Turn Off Passcode button and enter your passcode, it will now be turned off. I varified by turning off my phone and then turning it on, I double tapped to unlock and my home screen came up. Thanks for your help and support and I hope my instructions will help someone else.

Nancy,
Thank you so much for the info, even tho this is 4 years later! My current phone crashed, decided to resurrect an old 4s, and the passcode input every time the phone went to sleep drove me crazy!
The old 4s phone was in permanent "restore mode", and even Apple couldn't get it to turn on by using itunes. Help from this site made it work. Now you've solved the headache of the passcode.
This site is great. Thank you very much Nancy.
