Try this:


Open the Settings app.

Tap on your name at the top (aka your Apple Account settings).

Tap on iCloud.

Tap on Notes.

Turn on "Sync this iPhone" (green = on). If it is already on, turn it off and on again.

In the Notes app, wait several minutes for your notes to be restored from iCloud.
