Touch ID will not pop up on Lock notes

Last week, for unknown reason my touch ID to unlock my notes disappear and I tried entering all the password that I remembered using to unlocked it but it will not work. I tried resetting and same thing I shut down my phone but nothing will resolve the issue. I tried chatting with apple but I was told that someone will call me since it is a phone issue. I kept my iPhone 5S just for notes since I switch to android.

iPhone 5s, iOS 12

Hello~ You will need to remember that password. Resetting it only gives you access to new notes. Click on below…

*Apple doesn't have access to locked notes and can’t help you access them if you forget your notes password. If you forget your notes password, resetting the password doesn’t give you access to previously locked notes. If you reset then create a new notes password, that only allows you to lock other notes.
