All notes deleted from iPhone--no storage.

My iPhone is practically out of storage. When I opened my notes app, all of my notes had been deleted and I cannot find them anywhere. I did not delete over 100 notes; I feel that this is a problem with my lack of storage because they are still on my computer. Any way to get these back??

iPhone XR, iOS 13

Hello DD1228,


Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.


You may need to free up storage for your notes to sync back. These steps should help:


Use your device to check its storage
Go to Settings > General > [Device] Storage. You might see a list of recommendations for optimizing your device's storage, followed by a list of installed apps and the amount of storage each one uses. Tap an app's name for more information about its storage. Cached data and temporary data might not be counted as usage.
In the detailed view you can:
Offload the app, which frees up storage used by the app, but keeps its documents and data.
Delete the app, which removes the app and its related data.
Depending on the app, you might be able to delete some of its documents and data.
If your device is almost full and can't free up space, you might get a Storage Almost Full alert. If you see this alert, you should check the storage recommendations or you need to offload some less-used content like videos and apps. 


More details can be found here: How to check the storage on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch


If the issue persists, can you provide a few more details? How much available storage do you have? What is your exact iOS version? Also, when did you first notice this?


Good Luck!
