It also applies to the documents you create and share as well. You might have a will or bank account information, or maybe you&#8217;re working on a new book and the only eyes you want on that document (at least during the writing phase) are yours. You might even have to create specific documents that contain important information you must share with other people.<\/p>\n<p>With Apple Pages, this is quite easy to do. And once you&#8217;ve set a password for a Pages document, the only way it can be opened is with either the password you&#8217;ve set or TouchID (which is optional). Even if you upload the document to your iCloud, the password will be required to gain access to the content within.<\/p>\n<p><strong> Also:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/how-to-collaborate-with-an-apple-pages-document-via-icloud\/\" rel=\"follow\"><strong>How to collaborate with Apple Pages via iCloud<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve used this feature on a number of occasions, especially when I&#8217;m on the go.
