Some iPhone owners recently discovered that their Notes were missing from the handset. Savvy users figured out that accepting the new iCloud terms of service on the iPhone triggers the bug, and the Notes disappear. It happens after the iOS 18 update, but the iPhone doesn’t delete the Notes documents.
That data is still safe in iCloud, but the Notes app won’t sync with it properly after agreeing to the updated terms of service.
We showed you how to fix the disappearing Notes bug a few days ago. People figured out that syncing their Notes from iCloud would do the trick. Judging from the emails I received, the solution actually works, and the affected users have already regained access to their Notes.
Meanwhile, Apple has issued a support document that addresses the issue. The company doesn’t explain what’s causing the problem, but it offers a solution that matches the unofficial fix from a few days ago.
