# Evernote # How to view the note history?

Each note has a version history. If the content of the note is modified, it will be backed up every 8 hours.

If it is a newly created note that has not been backed up for more than 8 hours, please use Ctrl+Z to cancel it immediately after deleting some contents of the note by mistake. Android phone directly exits Evernote without saving the operation just now. Apple's mobile phone can be activated by shaking it.

If you delete the notes saved 8 hours ago by mistake, you can retrieve them by looking at the history. According to the time, select the version and click "Import" directly. The selected version history will be automatically imported and a new comment will be created.

1. On Windows and Mac clients, or login to Evernote Web Edition? , open the note, click the button "I" information in the upper right corner of the note page-view the note version history.

2. Select the version according to the time and click Import directly. The selected version history will be automatically imported and a new note will be created, or you can directly open the version history and copy and paste the note content.

Tip: Viewing notes version history is an advanced account function. Free users can apply for a temporary premium account to get their notes back when they are lost.
