iOS 18 Bug Causes iPhone Notes to Disappear

A widespread issue disconnects the Notes app from iCloud, but a simple fix restores access.

Many iPhone users are experiencing a bug where the Notes app shows no content after updating to iOS 18.
The issue arises after users accept new iCloud terms, causing the Notes app to disconnect from iCloud.
Despite the alarming appearance, no data is permanently lost; notes can be restored with a simple settings adjustment.
To fix the issue, users should re-enable Notes syncing in the iCloud settings on their iPhone.
Apple has yet to release an official update to permanently resolve the bug in future iOS versions.
