Check first to see if you have simply removed Notes from the Home Screen. It may still be in your Apps library, which follows the Home Screen as you swipe across.


You can download Notes for your iPhone from the iOS App store.


When you open the Notes app your iCloud notes should repopulate. To do this touch on Settings > [your name] > iCloud, then move the toggle for Notes to On.
