Locked Notes

Usually when I go to unlock my notes, I just need my thumbprint to unlock them. Now, I have to type in a password. I never setup a password for my notes but now it suddenly has one. How can I get rid of this problem?

You could not have enabled Touch ID if there wasn't a Notes password.

Did you add a hint to your Notes password? That should appear after entering the wrong password twice.

Yes. You did set a password. If you can't remember what it is, you will not be able to open those notes.

You can change the password for encrypted notes, but that will only affect future notes, not existing notes.
