I can’t find the Recently Deleted folder in my Notes app nor my iCloud.

I accidentally deleted a note and looked up for a way to return it and found out that there is a very simple way. It turned out that my MacBook, iPad, and my iPhone are supposed to have a recently deleted folder for the notes, but I can’t find it on any of my devices. I also tried checking iCloud.com but it’s not there.

Please, help me get it back or at least enable it for future needs.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 13.4

Hi OsamaAsiri

Apple support's online article: (link below)

If you're missing notes on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

says:

  1. "Open Notes, then tap the back icon until you see your Folders list.
  2. Tap Recently Deleted and search for your note.

If you find your note in Recently Deleted or in another folder, you can move it:


  1. In the Notes list, tap Edit.
  2. Select the note that you want to move.
  3. Tap Move, then select the folder you want to move it to".

All the best :-)
