Hi there WKYonc,


Thank you for posting to Apple Support Communities.


We understand that Notes are syncing between your devices. We're happy to help.


Let's be sure that both your iPhone and iPad are updated.  Before updating, we recommend backing up your iPhone first. These articles can be of help. When you back up, you can back up using a Mac or PC rather than iCloud if you choose.


How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch

Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


Then, check to be sure everything is set up correctly:


Set up iCloud for Notes on all your devices - Apple Support

Keep your notes up to date and share them with iCloud - Apple Support


That should help. Let us know if you have any questions.


Take care.
