Anybody ever figure out how to unlock an old note that youve forgotten the password too?
iPhone XR, iOS 15
See: How to lock notes on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support, specifically "Change your Notes password" and "If you forgot your notes password".
As you can see, you cannot gain access to Notes that you've forgotten the passcode to.

They DO state it very clearly in the dialog where you enter the password. They also recommend that you create a password reminder.

And?
You are not the only one buying, there are more than 1 billion iPhone circulating.
You should blame yourself for not writing it down.
You need the password or you can't unlock it, there is no way around this.
There is no limit on how many times you can try but there's no way without the correct password.

Well you locked it not Apple, remember?
But ….. Im the client …..who purchased the iphone with BIG bucks!
So you would prefer to buy a big bucks phone that anyone can breach the lock YOU chose to put on your Notes?
Am I in the wrong community? I thought a person could ask a question here in case someone smart found a way to solve the problem!
You would need some highly paid hackers to go around your passcode so no you will not find that on Apple’s site. You could consider a hypnotherapist that can jog your memory.
Old Notes password unlock?
