How to Password Protect Pages, Keynotes, and Numbers Documents on iPhone and iPad

We'll focus on the steps here for the Apple Pages app, everything is the same in Keynote and Numbers. Here's what you need to do:

1. First, launch the Pages/Keynote/Numbers app on your iPhone or iPad and open the document you want to encrypt.

   

2. Normally, you will be in reading view. You need to enter edit mode. This can be done by simply clicking on the "Edit" option in the upper right corner.

   

3. Next, tap the three-dot icon in the top menu to access more options for the selected document.

   

4. Here, scroll down and you will see the option to password protect your password. Click "Set Password" to continue.

   

5. Now, enter your preferred password and set a prompt. Face ID unlock is enabled for documents by default, but if you're going to share this document with others, it's best to disable it. Click "Done" to save your changes.

   

6. You will now see a lock icon on the encrypted document instead of the usual preview. When you tap it, you'll be prompted to use Face ID to unlock the document (if it's enabled). If Face ID authentication fails, you will be given the option to enter your password.

   

Go ahead. You've successfully password protected a Pages document on your iPhone or iPad.

As mentioned earlier, you can also follow the exact procedure to password protect Numbers and Keynote files. No matter which iWork app you use, the options you see on your screen will be exactly the same.
