Notes disappearing from iPhone or losing the entire Notes app are unfortunately common problems for iPhone users. We'll show you how to recover notes you accidentally deleted, as well as how to recover the Notes app on your iPhone if you accidentally deleted it.
How to reinstall the Notes app on your iPhone
This is the easiest Notes app problem to fix. If you just can't find the Notes app, swipe up from the middle of your Home screen. This will open Siri Search on your iPhone. Type /"Notes./" If the app icon doesn't appear in your search options or if it appears under the App Store, it was removed somehow. Here's how to get the Notes app back on your iPhone:
1. Open the App Store on your iPhone.
2. Tap the search bar.
3. Search for /"notes./"
4. Find Apple's Notes app. You will recognize the Notes app icon when you install it on your iPhone.
5. Download Notes to your iPhone by tapping the iCloud download icon.
6. Restore your notes via iCloud.
Unfortunately, if you had notes stored locally on your iPhone that weren't in iCloud when you deleted the Notes app, the only way to recover those lost notes is to restore an iPhone backup that included them. If iCloud backups are automatically enabled, you should be able to restore a recent enough backup that you don't lose any other information in the process. I was able to do this after deleting my Notes app for this article. It's not much fun to erase and restore your iPhone, but if those notes were important to you, it's nice that it's possible to recover them.
