Hi everyone, I wonder if we can Lock a Folder within Samsung Notes. I can Lock individual notes, but I'm looking to secure a complete folder of notes at once.

Thanks everyone!

I don't believe it's possible to lock a folder unfortunately:/ ive tried in the past with my s9 and now with my s24 aswell.

You are correct! Please Samsung, add this feature to a new version of Notes.

Hi DonPaco7,

Samsung Notes allows you to lock individual notes, and there isn’t a built-in option to lock an entire folder of notes in one step.

However, you can use Secure Folder. Samsung Secure Folder is a secure, encrypted space on Samsung devices where you can store sensitive apps and files.

You can move Samsung Notes into the Secure Folder so all notes within it are accessible only after unlocking the Secure Folder.

To set up Secure Folder: Go to Settings > Biometrics and security > Secure Folder. Once set up, open Secure Folder and add Samsung Notes.

When Samsung Notes is accessed through the Secure Folder, it’s protected by the folder’s lock (PIN, pattern, fingerprint, etc.), so you won’t need to lock each individual note.

Thank you.
