iPhone all my notes deleted, by icloud

Hello,

I deleted my icloud backups and all my notes on the iPhone memory were also deleted.


It happened as follows.


I was charging my phone.

I got a notification on the iPhone screen that your icloud space is full and your phone is not backing up, I tapped the notification,

iCloud settings screen opened. I deleted all my backups.

When I checked my notes, which are very important to me,

I saw that all my notes were deleted, and I didn't even go into the notes app... ios 15.6.1 / iPhone 13

I immediately reported it to Apple Support, but they won't accept it.

Why were my notes deleted from my phone? How can such a vulnerability happen?


For 10 days I have been waiting for a response from apple support, but I guess the engineers don't accept it.

How can I write more clearly? I ask for an urgent solution please.

Sorry notes aren't part of the icloud backup as outlined here What does iCloud back up? - Apple Support

Notes are synced to icloud and you probably turned off notes in settings thus removing the sync.


You can click and see if you can recover Delete and recover notes on iCloud.com - Apple Support

There is no vulnerability you disabled settings item without knowing the consequences.

so why did icloud settings delete my notes from my phone?

If you think that I said that I went into the notes app and deleted them one by one, deleted them one by one from the deleted ones and then deleted the icloud settings, or if you think that icloud does not backup notes, or synchronize with notes and cannot delete them, I think you answered without reading the subject completely.

Sorry you don't have an understanding on how it works.

I outlined it perfectly for you in my original response.

I hope you can help me if you write and tell me where my notes are. Is icloud in the trash can? In the deleted files of icloud servers? Are they on my phone's onsite memory ? I need to save them. All my notes were deleted while I was just trying to free up space so it could back up my notes and back up again. I wonder where my notes are, that is, where could the deleted source location? USA, Germany, or my phone's memory? I definitely need to reach them.

Like I said before I've outlined everything in my original response even how to recover your notes.

Are you not reading my reply.

Of course I have read it, and you know that the links you shared only talk about manually re-uploading deleted notes!

and that there is no need to ask for help here to access this information.

but the answer you are looking for is where the deleted notes are when icloud blah blah blah turned on blah blah turned off blah blah blah? if you don't know this, please say that you don't know and don't feel obliged to write about how to recover them. i am sorry

Apple support is not interested, they probably see that it was a mistake for me to spend 30 days like this and then close the unrecoverable sections and topics and say goodbye to my notes after 30 days. icloud services deleted all my notes. Before deleting, an information appears stating that my notes have been permanently deleted from the iPhone memory. If I have my iPhone examined by a data recovery package company, can it recover my notes?
