Where can I find deleted notes?

Answered by Phillip Nicastro

To find deleted notes, you can follow these steps on your Android phone or tablet:

1. Open the Google Keep app on your device. It has a yellow icon with a lightbulb.

2. In the top-left corner of the app, you will see a menu icon (three horizontal lines). Tap on it to open the menu.

3. From the menu, select “Trash.” This will take you to the trash folder where all your deleted notes are stored.

4. In the trash folder, you will see a list of all the notes you have deleted. These notes will have a trash bin icon next to them.

5. To view a deleted note, simply tap on it. It will open up, and you can see the contents of the note.

6. If you want to restore a deleted note and move it out of the trash, tap on the “Action” button. It looks like three dots or lines, depending on your device.

7. From the action menu, select “Restore.” This will take the note out of the trash and place it back into your regular notes list.

Remember, when you delete a note, it is moved to the trash folder, where it will remain for seven days. After seven days, the note will be permanently deleted and cannot be recovered.

In my personal experience, I have accidentally deleted important notes in the past. It can be frustrating and stressful, especially if the information in the note is crucial. That’s why it’s important to know how to find and recover deleted notes in Google Keep. By following the steps mentioned above, you can easily locate your deleted notes and restore them if needed.

Here’s a summary of the steps to find deleted notes in Google Keep:

1. Open the Google Keep app.
2. Tap on the menu icon and select “Trash.”
3. View the list of deleted notes in the trash folder.
4. Tap on a note to open it.
5. Use the action menu to restore a deleted note.
6. The note will be moved out of the trash and back into your regular notes list.
