Checklist isn't working in notes iOS 9.0

i have all the other functions at the bottom bar on the note, like trash, photo, free draw but nothing else.

I Noticed on a YouTube guide of how to use there is an extra icon that allows you to format in checklist, number or bullets! I am missing this icon.

Any suggestions? Or anyone else missing this?

Thanks

iPad Air, iOS 9

I only had this issue on my iPad mini 2. As it turns out I wasn't seeing it either because I a) had a hardware keyboard attached, and b) it seems it's in a different spot on the iPad vs iPhone.


when you have the software keyboard on the screen, flick up at the top of it to expand the quick type bar. you should see the checklist icon, formatting icon, copy/paste, predictive text, and the photo and draw icons.

You do have to have your notes linked to iCloud and updated

is a page from the manual. It can be a bit tricky, took me a bit to get it to work on mine. I hadn't linked to iCloud and then I had the keyboard suggestions turned off, instead I would see a tiny white line above the letters on the on screen keyboard. Dragging that little line up reveals that top row on the on screen keyboard.
