Restore deleted Flow documents

Currently it’s too easy to delete the wrong file and have no way to recover it. The app should have a trash bin where deleted items can be either restored or clicked on a second time to delete them permanently. I lost a month’s worth of notes with one click and then the program
also
deleted the copy I had on my phone as a backup. WHY??

A status correction: we're moving this back to Under Review. It's something we want to do, but it isn't scheduled right now, and Planned implied more certainty than we have. In the meantime, reach out via email flow@bonobolabs.com if you need assistance because we can manually help out for accidental deletions!

Just wanted to mention that while it isn't exposed in the Flow UI yet, accidentally deleted documents are recoverable within 30 days - just send us an email!

Your current ‘immediate deletion’ of documents with no ability to recover accidentally deleted documents is a glaring issue. You have to add document recovery 2022.

It’s too easy to delete the wrong sketch, hope will add a bin to temporarily placed from deleted.

I agree! I lost a drawing I needed to modify urgently for a client. I had to start over, very frustrating.. It would be nice to have access to a cloud backup service or be able to connect a custom cloud drive to save and sync your data to directly in the app.

I definitely agree with this request. I am trying to decide if I should use Flow or the Apple notes app for classes this fall and the only big disadvantage I see in Flow is that you can’t recover any accidental deletions.
