Apple’s Notes app is a convenient way to keep track of lists, articles, photos, and more. The app is included on iOS devices by default, and your Apple ID allows you to easily sync all your notes. If you use Notes as a journal or keep track of more personal information, you’ll need an extra layer of protection from prying eyes. The following will tell you how to password protect your notes, let’s take a look!
Here’s how to set it up on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
How to Password Protect Notes on iPhone and iPad
1. Open the Notes app on your iPhone.
2. Start a new note or select an existing note.
3. Tap the three dots in the upper right corner.
4. Click the Lock button.
5. Create your password, re-enter it to verify and add a hint (if needed). You can also choose to enable Face ID or Touch ID.
6. Click Finish.
Your password-protected notes will now display a small lock icon next to the title when you open the Notes app. When you tap the note, you’ll be reminded that it’s locked and prompted for a password.
How to Password Protect Notes on Mac
1. Open the Notes app on your Mac.
2. Start a new note or select an existing note.
3. Click the lock icon in the upper right corner of the Notes app.
4. Click Lock Notes.
5. Create your password, re-enter it to verify and add a hint (if needed).
6. Click Set Password.
Similar to the iOS version of Notes, your password-protected notes will display a lock icon. You need to enter your password to open Notes.
Can I change my Notes password?
Yes, it just looks a little different depending on the device you’re using. When you initially lock a note, unless you specify otherwise in Settings, the same password will be applied to every locked note (so make sure it’s a strong password!) Here’s what to know:
iPhone and iPad
1. Open Settings on your device.
2. Scroll down and tap the Notes app in the left pane of the screen.
3. Click Password.
4. From here, you can tap Change Password or Reset Password.
Apple Computer
1. Open the Notes app on your Mac.
2. Tap the note in the upper left corner.
3. Click Preferences.
4. From here, you can choose Change Password or Reset Password.
Can I use Touch ID or Face ID to lock my notes?
Yes, but make sure you have Touch ID set up on your device. If you’re setting up a Notes password for the first time, you can choose Touch ID or Face ID instead of entering a password. Here’s how to add Touch ID or Face ID as an accessibility option for locked notes:
iPhone and iPad
1. Open Settings on your iPhone.
2. Find and open the Notes app.
3. Tap Password.
4. Toggle to use Touch ID. Now, when you try to open a locked note, you’ll be prompted to use your fingerprint or enter your password. Just follow the steps again to turn it off.
For Face ID, follow the steps below, but turn on Use Face ID instead.
Apple Computer
1. Open the Notes app on your Mac.
2. Tap the note in the upper left corner.
3. Click Preferences.
4. Check the Use Touch ID box under the Change Password and Reset Password buttons.
Can I remove the lock on the note?
Yes, but please note that if you remove the lock on your note, it will apply to every Apple device you log in with that ID. Here’s how it breaks down on iPhone, iPad, and Mac:
iPhone and iPad
1. Open the Notes app on your iPhone.
2. Select the locked note you want to unlock.
3. Enter your passcode using Face ID or Touch ID.
4. Click the More button.
5. Select Delete (you should not see the lock icon on the note now).
Apple Computer
1. Open the Notes app on your Mac.
2. Click the lock icon in the upper left corner.
3. Click Remove Lock.
4. Enter your password.
5. Click OK.
