Recover Deleted Notes?

Accidentally deleted all notes when setting up a new IOS device.  Now they are gone from all devices.  Is there a way to recover?  Or am I out of luck? 

MacBook Pro (M2, 2022)

Hello


Unfortunately, you will only be able to recover notes within the "Recently Deleted" folder. If they're not there you cannot recover them unless you revert to a backup where they do exist.


  1. Delete and recover notes on iCloud.com - Apple Support
  2. If you're missing notes on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


I hope this helps!
