Undo delete a card

Through the Trello App I deleted a card in my board. I opened the card, clicked on the 3 vertical dots in the top right corner, and chose Delete (in red). 
I only wanted to delete a checklist from that card, not the complete card. The delete action is in my activity history. But I can't undo it I am afraid.

This, wile in the browser Delete is not a direct function (first you have to Archive). Seems strange to me?

Anything I can do to get the card back, please let me know.

Br, Rob

Hi @Rob Tuitert and welcome to Community!

You're right, the Trello mobile app behaves differently than the browser version: in the app,

there are separate buttons for archiving and deleting cards. You still have a confirmation pop-up if you select "Delete a card", though.

Have you checked your board Archive menu, just to be sure? Unfortunately, deleting a card is permanent, and deleted cards can't be restored, as stated in the documentation.

Hi, thanks! Yes I checked the Archive. Was not aware that I was deleting the whole card... so unfortunately it's gone now. Well, time for some new stuff then. Thanks for the swift reply. Br, Rob
