My app was removed after updating to ios11, I’ve restored it but all the notes I had have gone. How do I find them again? They were backed up to iCloud

what if they are not showing in icloud either??

If your Notes are not in iCloud, then you were only saving them on the phone itself. In that case, the only place they would be is in the iPhone backup, unless you were syncing them with other account, such as an email account, such as Gmail, or other email provider that handles notes. However, only you would know that. If you have a backup of the device that was made while the notes were on the phone, you could restore to that backup. However, understand that anything done since that backup would be lost.
