This type of issue can be caused by multiple factors
like brute force attacks, guests changing the settings, or just simple mistakes.
The quickest solution in most cases is to just simply delete the device from the app (in some cases delete the app itself)
and just re-add the device to the app again
If the wrong password has been entered into the app you should receive a message like this:
The device should take roughly 15-20 min to ‘unlock’ before you can go through the modify password settings again.
a restart can be performed by either a software restart in the NVR or a hardware restart.
