Deleting a note does not destroy it, whether you delete it from its folder, from inside the note or, on mobile, from the search results. The note moves to the Recently Deleted folder, at the bottom of the folder list on both platforms. A note someone else deletes in a folder you share lands in your Recently Deleted too.
Bringing a note back
Open Recently Deleted, open or select the note, and use Move to Folder to put it back where it belongs. Everything comes back with it: content, attachments, tags and version history. Its modified date is untouched too, since neither the delete nor the restore counts as an edit, so the note sorts back to where it was.
Deleting permanently
Deleting a note while inside Recently Deleted asks for confirmation and then removes it for good, along with its attachments, flashcards, quizzes, mind maps and mini apps. To clear several at once, select them and delete the batch; the folder menu also has Empty Recently Deleted, which clears everything in one go.
Notes stay until you act
Grape does not purge Recently Deleted on a timer. Deleted notes wait there until you delete them permanently or empty the folder, so an accidental delete from months ago is usually still recoverable.
If the note is truly gone
A permanently deleted note can still be inside an older backup. Restoring a backup replaces your current library though, so treat it as the last resort rather than the first.
