I was freaking out!! But managed to get them back.


How to get notes back! Follow below steps


setting -> iCloud ->

(look for small grey heading that says apps using iCloud listed below is photos, icloud drive…. Click Show All)

-> turn the notes toggle green (turn on)


* it stopped working because syncing from iCloud got turned off in the update
