Help me with a locked note?

Hi,


So recently, I’ve created a note to help me navigate through my own personal infos and my work, had it activated with either the password or my fingerprint. Usually, I went with the fingerprint and it worked superbly, until said fingerprint itself deactivated from my notes. Now, even with the hint, I cannot figure out my password from my locked note, and no, I’m not plugging my phone into a pc, yet. I want to lay out every options I have before I have to plug it in and do whatever i have to, in order to retrieve the info on my locked note.


I am not very happy with this issue as I’ve done nothing that would deactivate touch ID on my notes. It is the only locked note that I have as well. And the most important one.

iPhone 8, iOS 14

Your only option is to remember the password for the note. Plugging your iPhone into a PC will not help. There is no way to reset the password for a note.
