notes Sync

I got iphone 13 mini. I am signed in icloud, Have gone through all the steps mentioned to sync the notes.

I have done this many times, it takes some time to get the notes on new devices. But on this one, I cant see any of the notes from icloud downloading to my phone.

everything is on in the settings, I have signed out and signed back in but still cant find any notes in the application. They are all there on iCloud.com, but not syncing with the phone, Any solution please?

I've moved on from Apple Notes to Evernote (free option syncs between 2 devices). Evernote is not without issues, as it is a slow app since the last major version "upgrade". But at least Evernote reliably syncs all my notes between my iPhone & computer, and the web capture feature works well. Other alternative note apps I've tried are OneNote (free), Notion (complicated interface), Joplin (free), Google Keep (limited features, no list view). Evernote, all things considered, has the best combination of features & simplicity for my needs.

My experience with Apple Notes is one of utter frustration shared by SO many: iCloud sync for Notes has been unreliable for many, many years and Apple does not provide a fix. iCloud sync for Notes may work for some, but for a vast number of others it is nonfunctional. You will be lead down a huge rabbit hole of supposed fixes, all very cumbersome, and some sync may return for awhile but ultimately it will fail again. You're unlikely to find any solution to get the sync working properly, sadly. I encourage you to NOT rely on Apple Notes if sync between devices is important to you.
