I reset my iPhone and all my notes are gone? What happened?

I reset my phone to clean it and everything is still on my phone. I was looking at my notes and everything is gone besides two things!

If you were logged into iCloud before you reset your phone then your stuff would've been saved there so all you'd need to do now I'd log in to iCloud on your iPhone in settings or go to iCloud.com

  • Why does my iPhone notes app.delete some notes? Some have been there for over a year others just disappear after a few days. I have not (to my knowledge) done anything differently.
  • Some of my notes from my iphone 4s are gone? I did back everything up to my icloud but how do i look through them from my icloud like i see icloud and where it says notes but how do i open it up or look for them? Can anyone tell me the steps thanks
  • Notes on my iPhone are gone? I had at least 68-70 notes on my iPhone 4 Notes app. I went on it not too long ago (10-15 minutes ago) and my recent notes I either created or added on to were there but then within a second, they 'blinked' out and now they're gone. There was one note that had a lot of information on it that I really need it and now it's gone! How can I get it back! The note(s) are nowhere in the app!
  • My iPhone says that my Notes is taking up 1.79 GB of storage. I only have 3 notes, and there isn't a lot of text in them. How do I fix this? Recently there were a lot of notes on my phone, but I deleted most of them until there were only three notes left. However, my phone still says my Notes takes up 1.79 GB. I tried writing a really lengthy note to see if the GB would go higher, but it didn't change. I don't want to delete my three remaining notes, which have very little text in them. I doubt that these notes are taking up 1.79 GB. What is the problem here, and how do I fix it?
