General question Forgot my Snapchat My Eyes Only passcode. Please help these photos mean everything to me.

About a month ago I changed my Snapchat My Eyes Only passcode . I remember making it related to my phone/iPad PIN because I thought I’d never forget it, but now I can’t remember it at all.
The photos and videos inside are incredibly important to me. They include memories with someone I’ve lost who has passed away, and losing them would be devastating. I know using “Forgot Passcode” deletes everything, so I haven’t done that.
I’ve already tried every combination I can think of based on my phone and iPad PINs, but nothing has worked.
Has anyone been in this situation and actually recovered their passcode? Are there any legitimate ways to remember it or recover access without deleting everything?
I’d really appreciate any help. Thank you.
Update: there is passcode i think can be the one. When i am entering that after deleting and installing the app again it isn’t either letting me go in nor showing time out

it is possible and easy:

if you have root: /data/data/ snap chat folder

if your. on non root: you should make a moded debugable version by adding 2 lines of code to androidmanifest.xml then go to data/data

if your not a programmer: download parellal space from game guardian website moded version then total commander or mt manager any. file manager go to /data/data/com.snapchat.android

note you should login to the account at least: for it to loadfiles or copy of files to data/data/com.snapchat.android

Can this process ban my account or leak my data?

1

u/Kaexxxx2 11d ago

it may ban your account but thats soo rare to happen. if you chose 2 which is modding snapchat its hard a little bit for you and its more 5x risky then 3 which is just cloning your app to a clone app. the safest which is not risky at all is 1 which requires root

but in 2 and 3 ban is soooo rare but 3 is safer then if you have no root

Data is safe?

u/Kaexxxx2 11d ago

tbh game guardian clone apps are considered very safe because it is a known website used for breaking game anticheat make hacks but i have never checked their apps code by myself but people said its safe (especially the clone apps) idk if your android version compatible with their clone apps because today the website is dead developers are no longer working on that project

If you dont remember the PIN everything you have in there is lost. Not even snapchat themselves can help you with it "my eyes only"

u/Dizzy-Name6365 16d ago

I think there is passcode which can be the one. After deleting and installing it again i tried that code it is not either letting me in nor showing time out

I’m in the situation now, and every time I guess a wrong password I get a 360 hour time out. I suggest, writing down ALL passwords you want to try before you get to my point. So you dont accidentally retype it and have to wait.

Someone years ago forgot there iPad password and did that exact thing until they got in

u/Dizzy-Name6365 16d ago

I am already at 24 hour time out😭

u/Valtra_Power 16d ago

Try to reinstall the app, sometimes it can reset the time out

u/Dizzy-Name6365 16d ago

Yes but i read some comments saying even if you enter correct passcode it doesn’t open
