I transferred everything from my old phone to a new phone. I never used a password for my locked notes only my face id. Now on my new phone i can’t access my old locked notes without a password but i never made a password so i don’t know what it would be.
iPhone 13, iOS 16
To unlock a note, you need to enter the password that it's locked with. If you forgot your notes password, Apple can't help you regain access to your locked notes.
Also worth mentioning:
Beginning in iOS 16, you have two options to lock your notes. You can lock notes with your iPhone passcode. Or, you can create a unique password only for Notes.
