Hello gwf250,


Thank you for the details of the duplicate issue you are experiencing with Notes on your iPhone.


If you use iCloud and also sync your iPhone through iTunes, this may cause duplicate notes:

Duplicate notes

Syncing Notes both over the air and with iTunes can result in duplicate notes appearing in the Notes application. Use the following steps to resolve the issue:

  1. Connect your device and select it in iTunes.
  2. Click the Info pane and deselect the option to Sync Notes.
  3. When prompted, select Delete Notes to remove the duplicates from the device.

If you want to sync notes with iTunes instead of using the over-the-air feature, disable Notes sync for the account using Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars or Settings > iCloud.

If you are not syncing through iTunes and only using iCloud, I recommend disabling and re-enabling Notes in Settings>iCloud.
