Oops, I forgot my pin. Damn this feeble aging brain.

Either that or set up a pin which wipes the phone when entered. Wild these are the only real options aside from handing over intimate personal information. Crazy times we're living in...

I've heard people say things like this but is that actually possible? To create a pin that wipes a phone?

GrapheneOS has a duress pin feature, which will wipe the device when entered. This being the case, I'd bet there's also a method to setting this up on a normal android device too.

Needs root access though

You can set up your phone to reset itself if the incorrect pin is entered enough times
