I use Gnotes on my Galaxy Note 4 for a few months and have compiled about 100 important notes. I didn't cloud sync. Today, I open gnotes app and ALL my notes disappeared. What do I do and how did this happen?

They might be in the phone still. Consider programs like Recuva and also look for a folder of app data.
Web sync is what I depend on anymore

Thank you. I'll try. Any idea what happened?

Would it be a notes.db folder?

Not sure and never got much help from the developer. Okay have used Remo for Android for recovery. I see that I have a Gnotes backup file with content in it. Looking at the app on my Motorola droid Maxx I don't see a button to push to make a backup. Oddly enough this Motorola does miss some menus on some apps. The content is in HTML type code and is not very legible as it is. I think I would need to imported into gnotes to get it to read again or perhaps into some sort of HTML reading app. In any case there is a file in there with some sort of backup. Maybe you will get lucky and have some sort of cache of data like that somewhere

Here is where mine is. This is a screenshot of the ASTRO File Manager view of my folders. The Droid Maxx does not have a removable memory so they referred to the built-in memory as SD card 0

Hi paul. I found a folder with about 10 straw_db folders. Are they note folders and how do I open them?

I don't recognize that name and I haven't looked past seeing thought that I had something called gnotes backup or some such thing like that. That is probably a specific backup that I did somehow. I don't really know how or when it was done it may have been done from the computer when I was trying to get it to work with Gmail. If you see some sort of data files that don't open up properly try importing them into gnotes and see if the gnotes app will open them
