I cannot unlock my iPhone locked notes with my finger print

Hi there,

I cannot unlock my locked notes with my finger print. My iPhone is asking for a password but it will not recognize my apple sign in password.

Can anyone help with this please.

When you first licked the Notes you supplied a password which can be anything, diffetent from any other password.

Touch ID bypasses that but if touch ID suffers a hiccup then you need to remember the original password.

Until you remember it then the Notes are locked. Apple cannot help either.
