Notes App

I have important notes in my notes app that are locked, I forgot the old password but when I went to change it, it said I cannot because I do not know the previous password. Is there by any chance I can get in my old notes even though I don’t know their password?

Unfortunately, no. You will need to remember the old password to unlock them.

You can set a new password for future notes but it will not unlock the current notes.
