Hi, Nikola!


Thanks for posting on the Apple Support Community. I understand you forgot the password to your locked notes in the Notes app. Unfortunately, you won't be able to recover notes that you previously locked and forgot the password to.

You can reset your password for new notes, though. You can do that by going to Settings > Notes, and tapping Password. Note that this won't reset the password to your old notes.


I hope this reply was helpful. Stay safe.
