iOS 16: Tips on using lock screen password to protect notes

In the past, when users wanted to lock notes on iPhone to protect private information, they needed to set a separate passcode. However, this approach often results in users accidentally forgetting the memo password, making it impossible to view previously locked memo information again.

In the latest version of iOS 16, Apple has optimized the memo lock function. Now, users can use a screen passcode to lock any notes that need to be kept private. When you want to view a locked note, you can use Face ID, Touch ID, or screen passcode to unlock it. This improvement provides users with a more convenient way to protect their private information.

The following is how to lock memos and protect the security of your memos by setting a lock screen password: 1. Turn on your iOS 16 device and enter the home screen. 2. Find and tap the "Settings" icon on the home screen. 3. In the settings menu, slide down and find the "Touch ID & Password" or "Face ID & Passcode" option, click to enter. 4. If you have already set up Touch ID or Face ID, you will be asked to verify your identity. After successful verification, you will enter the password setting interface. 5. In the password setting interface, you can select the "Change Password" or "Enable Password" option. Select the "Enable Password" option. 6. You will be asked to enter a new lock screen password. Please make sure you choose a strong password and that it is not the same as the password for another account or service. 7. Enter your new password and confirm your password. 8. Once passcode is enabled, you will see an option to require a passcode when locking the screen. Make sure this option is turned on. 9. Your note is now locked. Whenever your device goes into lock screen, you'll be asked to enter your password to access Notes. Through the above steps, you have successfully locked your memo with the lock screen password, ensuring the security of the memo. Remember to change your password regularly and make sure your password is not known to others.

Click the "..." button in the upper right corner to open more options for memo.

Clicking the "Lock" button is a common operation to fix a specific state or setting to prevent accidental changes or moves. This function has applications in various devices and software, such as locking the screen orientation on mobile phones, locking files or folders on computers, and so on. By tapping the Lock button, we can ensure that selected items or settings cannot be inadvertently changed, improving user experience and security.

According to the on-screen instructions, you need to tap on the "Use iPhone Passcode" option and follow the on-screen prompts.

If you want to view notes locked with a device passcode, please note that it can only be viewed on devices running iOS 16, iPadOS 16, macOS 13 and above. If your device is on an older version, you'll need to upgrade your system before viewing the lockdown notes. If you are using multiple devices and these devices are logged in with the same Apple ID, the system will prompt you in the interface for the device that needs to be upgraded.
