You might use "find my device" if you had it set up on your phone.

Smart lock used to have a feature called remote unlock, but samsung removed the feature for security reasons. As far as "find my device" you would have had to set it up. Go to device settings > google > find my device.

I think I already set that up last night. But going through "find my device" will give me a way to reset the password is what you are saying?

Nope. You'll be able to factory reset your phone using "Find my Device".
