Select Password. This is the fifth option from the top of the screen in the "Notes" menu.- If you haven't created a password for your Notes yet, you'll need to fill out the Password, Verify (type your password again), and Hint fields listed here to continue.
Slide the Use Touch ID switch right to the "On" position. It will turn green. If this option is greyed out, you'll need to set up your Touch ID first.- This option is at the top of the Password screen.
