hi @Daadogg .  
You have the wallet password for your iPhone, can you open it?  
Then click Settings - Security & Privacy - Reveal secret recovery phrases. Can you get it back?

When I log into MetaMask, it only gives me two options. Import wallet with Secret Recovery Phrase or ‘create new a wallet’.

How do I access my wallet with only the password?

To clarify, I only have the MetaMask public wallet ID number, and the password. I was unable to get the private key for this old account.

Hi! If you have an old iCloud backup or backup on another device, you could try to restore your iPhone from it (the date of backup must be the date before the issue appeared). Then you may use your password to log to MetaMask and reveal your srp.

Unfortunately, I don’t think I had enough icloud space to back-up my old device. So think I’m out of options now.
