Previously, when users needed to lock memos on their iPhone to protect privacy information, they needed to set a separate password. The problem this brings is that many users will accidentally forget the memo password and then they will no longer be able to view the previously locked memo information.
In iOS 16, Apple optimizes the memo lock function, supporting users to lock any memos that they want to keep confidential through their screen password. When you want to view locked memos, you can unlock them with your Face ID, Touch ID, or screen password.
iOS 16 The method of locking memos through the lock screen password is as follows:
1. Open the memo that needs to be locked and tap "..." in the upper right;
2. Tap "Lock".
3. After viewing the instructions and tap "Use iPhone Password", then follow the screen prompts.
It should be noted that:
Memos locked with device password can only be viewed in iOS 16, iPadOS 16, macOS 13 and later. If you have other devices, you need to update the system before viewing locked memos on these devices. If these devices are logged in to the same Apple ID, the system will prompt you in this interface to upgrade the device.
