How do I undo a "merge layer" action?

So I've been working on an animation for about a week and now I've just accidentally merged the colour layer with my lineart layer, with the colour layer on top. It's just showing colour now and I've lost all my lines! I've been searching round trying to find out whether anyone else has had this problem, but can't find a solution. Please, please, PLEASE tell me if there's a way to undo this action? I don't want to have to start over again.. 

Thanks.

Undo

Can you please make it so that if you delete a layer you can undo it? That's a basic feature of an art program and i wish it was there. It's extremely aggravating that its so easy to just delete artwork unintentionally and it's NEVER been fixed or dealt with it seems.

Restore layer feature

My daughter keeps accidentally deleting layers and is devastated that she can't restore them. She says that there isn't a pop-up warning before her work gets deleted, it just disappears. We upgraded to premium, but the premium features don't help. We're super frustrated and considering looking for an alternative animation app.

Switched layers

So I was working on a drawing for like, hours. All day. And I decided to merge the layers at the end when I was finished, but when I did, it switched the layers and merged them. Making the lower layer on top when it’s supposed to hide behind the top layer. And now it’s irreversible. Please help, is there any way you can go back and fix it? I’m devastated and I don’t know what else to do. I have an IPhone X 

I actually had mistakenly deleted the layer 1 instead of layer 2 and what bad is that all my flips are all in the layer 1, it just so sad cause ive work on it all night, I hope you can help me.. I know you can so pls please Reach ou to a helping hand😢😢
Bug

My hard work or 9 hours, all accidentally deleted on one layer. We all absolutely need an undo for unmerging layers. 9 HOURS WASTED. It was a simple animation with one layer of moving drawings, but I put so much passion and hard work into it. Now I have to spend another 9 hours to recreate it. Frankly, I am extremely upset and angry that I can't undo my mistake, PLEASE ADD AN UNDO BUTTON IN ALL PLACES THAT YOU WORK ON. It is also my mistake for not saving it meanwhile, but please make this option so nobody encounters this experience.

Hey, we apologize for the inconvenience. We can see how that would be bad news... :(


There is no way to restore the removed or merged layer, we have provided a removal confirmation option instead.

We are aware this might not be very user-friendly for everyone and we are planning to change how that happens in the future.

Hello! I'm sorry to know about what happened. Unfortunately you can't undo removed layers past the undo timeout. We are aware this isn't user friendly and we are working to change this in the near future. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

its not possible to recover a deleted layer. You'll just have to redraw everything. There's not going around it. Sorry.
