Password protect

It would be great if you had an option to password protect a selected notebook in case you have to create one that would contain sensitive information.

Introducing Password Protection for your documents

To lock a document, tap on the context menu for the document in the library view and set a password. Anytime you try to open, export, duplicate, or delete the document, Goodnotes will ask you for the set password. If you’re using a device that supports FaceID or TouchID, you can use these instead of your password to unlock a document. Please note that you can have only one password that will apply to all locked notebooks and that Password Protection is only available in Goodnotes 6. Learn more

Update to version 6.4.2 in App Store to use Password Protection.

    Isn’t this like super obvious? Serieusly people it’s really not that hard.

    It's evident that Goodnotes users need password protection. This app is not only for scholar homework. Many of us, who work, also want to put sensitive information on it. Please, listen to us. Are more than 2500 votes not enough? How much longer will we have to wait! Please, we are here!

    Please add password protection ASAP; including Touch ID and Face ID to open the app.

    I use GN as my main journal on my iPad but also use the iPad for testing clients in my work as a psychologist. Would really like to be able to lock the app so that cant poke around without my knowledge.

    Wish I could password protect certain notes with critical data Not all notes need password protection

    Really need to be able to lock documents or folders with a passcode to be able to use this with work documents.

    Good notes would be greatly enhanced with password for locking files.
