The inability to export, as well as the lack of anything more than the bare basic formatting options (at least at the time a few years ago) pushed me off apple notes.

I’ve been able to export since early, early iPhone. They’re just txt files. Surprisingly, Apple notes have been the most durable as Apple has migrated them from every iPhone I’ve had for the past 15-20 years or whatever.

Basic formatting is a plus for me. Although now notes has really advanced formatting and even sketching.

Have you found a solution to mass export notes?

There are plenty of tools for exporting, and I’ve tried to leave Notes several times and had no issue getting the notes out.

But trouble free sync between machines, the ability to ‘scan’ documents, adding basic maths support, the ease… it always sucks me back in.

I wish it kept the date of creation and edits readily available, and supported markdown. But it’s damn close to what I want.

Why can’t Apple Mail do search as well as notes?
