There is no direct way to recover a forgotten Digital Wellbeing PIN. However, there are two main approaches you can try:
1. Resetting Digital Wellbeing:
* Go to Settings > Apps > Digital Wellbeing > Storage.
* Tap on Clear Data. This will reset the app and remove the PIN, but it will also clear any settings or limits you've previously set.
* You'll need to set up Digital Wellbeing again and create a new PIN.
2. Factory Reset (Last Resort):
If resetting the app doesn't work and the PIN continues to block access, a full factory reset of your phone will reset all settings, including the Digital Wellbeing PIN. Remember to back up your important data before proceeding.
Important Note:
* Factory resetting your phone will erase all data on your device. Make sure to back up your important data before proceeding.
* Contact your device manufacturer's support for specific instructions on how to perform a factory reset.
Additional Tips:
* Try to remember the PIN or write it down in a safe place.
* Consider using a simple PIN that is easy to remember.
* Enable biometric authentication (fingerprint or face recognition) to access Digital Wellbeing if available on your device.
By following these steps, you should be able to recover access to your Digital Wellbeing settings.

This is still wrong yet. You need the app PIN to clear data of Digital Wellbeing app, which he forgot. So it destroys the purpose.

You have two options -
1. Factory reset
2. Go to service center

I spoke to customer care and this was the response.
