Weird IPhone notes.

Hi not sure if this is the right place to ask but alright.

Today I went through my IPhone notes and noticed 2 weird ones which I didn’t recognise. They were created few days ago and are just some random letters and numbers, which looks like could be a password or something. I definitely didn’t create them and even for a password I wouldn’t choose such a random letter/number combinations.
Everything else in there is my stuff which I know I wrote it down but these two I have no idea what they are and why they are there.
Any ideas?

Have you accidentally shared something from a browser into iPhone notes when you meant to share it somewhere else?

Me too! I thought I must have saved them (do sometimes copy order numbers or policy numbers into my notes) but I was pretty sure I didn't recognise them and I didn't think I was quite that forgetful Smile Just checked and I still have one in my deleted folder, want to compare and see if they match OP?

Could someone else be using your Apple ID (even on another device)? Have a read here www.guidingtech.com/stop-sharing-iphone-notes-ipad-apple-devices/ to see if it helps.

I have some weblink ones which have randomly appeared, 2 of them are mumsnet and a couple of shopping ones, I recognise them as something I would have looked at online but have no idea how they ended up in my notes, bit of a pain as they are cluttering it up and I will have to delete them. Probably a new Apple thing for our convenience but it's not.

And another thing which I have had happen is a couple of random photos appear on my photo stream which are nothing to do with me😯. It was quite scary but I googled and it had happened to others though I can't remember how.

Do you have a toddler who might have used your phone to open a random app and then write random rubbish on it? Ds3 is forever sending texts to DH saying things like "uok7bi"
