“I have an iPhone 5s, and after I upgraded to iOS 8 I lost all my notes. The iCloud sync was off. Now there is no note page on my iPhone. The only way to get my notes back was restore from last backup. But I can’t restore from backup on iOS8 unless downgrade to iOS 7(It’s also impossible). I don’t want to copy-paste one-by-one note, it’s just crazy and a waste of time. Is there any way to get back lost notes on my iOS 8 iPhone 5s without restoring from the last backup?”
