Are notes encrypted locally even if you are not logged in?

Yes, with v3.0 and higher. But so far there have been at least one detected/not fixed yet leak of recently edited note titles in .log-files at NN's configuration folder. (just titles, not the actual note contents).

So since the app password isn’t used to decrypt them if my phone is unlocked the only thing stopping someone from gaining access to the contents of the app is the password, and the contents arent encrypted?

like upon opening they decrypt automatically? or else how do i see the contents

When you open the app, it gets the database password from the system's KeyChain/KeyStore. If successful, it decrypts your database in memory so even if you open the app and someone copies all your data from your device, they won't be able to access your notes.

Looking into this.

I see, but if it’s decrypted in memory isn’t it more secure for it to not be decrypted at all unless the password is used?
