# Restore a note version

UpNote automatically saves **previous versions** of your notes whenever you make edits. This allows you to review past changes and restore an earlier version if needed — helpful for long notes, detailed writing, or recovering accidental edits.

**Note:** Version history is **saved locally on each device** and is **not synced** across devices.\
Each device keeps its own independent set of versions.
