How do you get your notes out of apple notes though? They're like some sort of covetous demon who won't let your notes go once it consumes them.
I literally went to the apple notes discord once and asked them directly and their response was basically "Apple Notes isn't design to be used for more than 100 notes"... so be very very careful about choosing to use Apple Notes cause you may never get your notes out of there
- halpmeh 4y agoWhere exactly are my notes supposed to be going?
- foobarian 4y agoA local filesystem directory with text files would be a good start.
- FearlessNebula 4y agoMany options, should you decide to leave the Apple ecosystem
- abhiyerra 4y agoYou can use AppleScript to copy them into other apps. Though a lack of an API is annoying.
- FearlessNebula 4y agoWait… Apple is providing support via Discord now? Anyways, if you have access to a Mac you can sync your notes via iCloud and then on Mac you can easily access the SQLite DB containing the notes. If you can figure out the schema it would be easy to write a tool to export this automatically. I’d guess someone has already built such a tool.
