To lock the app, click Lock Now at the bottom of the screen.
At this point, the note was locked and the content you could see before it was gone, replaced by Locked.
When you want to open a locked note, click View Note .
If you use Touch ID, simply press the Home button to unlock it, otherwise you can select Enter Password to enter the password.
After entering the password, you can view your note and if you want to lock it, click the lock icon that opens in the top right corner of the screen.
You can also return to the Notes app's main screen and click Lock Now at the bottom of the screen to lock all open notes at once.
To completely remove the password protection from notes, swipe it as if you wanted to create a password and click the gray lock icon again.
Note: If you synchronize notes between different Apple devices with iCloud, when locking a note, you also lock it on other devices and vice versa.
