- Enter the wrong pattern or PIN multiple times until you see a “Forgot Pattern?” or “Forgot PIN?” option.
- Tap on the option, and you’ll be prompted to enter your Google account credentials.
- If you don’t have access to your Google account, tap on the “Enter backup PIN” option.
- Enter your backup PIN, and you’ll be able to unlock your tablet.

If the above method doesn’t work or you don’t have a backup PIN, you can try factory resetting your tablet. But remember, this will erase all data on your tablet, so make sure to back up any important files beforehand. Here’s how to factory reset your tablet:
- Turn off your tablet and hold the volume up button and the power button simultaneously until the tablet powers on.
- Use the volume buttons to navigate the recovery mode menu and select the “Factory Reset” or “Wipe Data” option.
- Confirm the selection and wait for the tablet to reset to its factory settings.
- Once the process is complete, your tablet should be unlocked and you can set it up as if it were new.
