Can't remember my pin for notes on my android phone.

[Android Central Question]

From what I have read, there's absolutely nothing we can do to retrieve a forgotten in in our note app.
How nice to hear we can never retrieve any of our info in notes. The app should have warned us before we locked our notes, you think.
All other app's will let you retrieve or change your pin number, that's what you are use to.

So the question is...?

You've posted in the AAQ forum.

The phone doesn't allow you to change or retrieve your PIN. Most apps fdon't. Only websites do. Since the default for apps is not to, none of them warn you. It's 2018 - it's expected that everyo9ne knows that you have to remember, or keep a list of, all your PINs and passwords. (If this 76 year old man can learn that, you should have too. I didn't grow up with passwords, most people living today have.)

Welcome to Android Central! Which phone, and which notes app? Password/PINs are very important data -- if you're prone to forgetting them, then I suggest writing them down on a piece of paper and keeping them somewhere secure, like a safe.
