Be careful keeping important things in Apple Notes and not backing it up elsewhere. One time I disabled the iCloud sync on Apple Note from my Mac. All of my notes disappeared everywhere. The notes were previously available across all my devices logged into that account as well as the web UI - all gone and unrecoverable (I did a lot of research and tried everything). And no warning in the UI that disabling the iCloud sync would delete any data. Dumb mistake I won’t make again. I’ve heard many times over the years not to trust “the cloud” and don’t consider it to be a valid backup solution. This is the first time I’ve ever actually been bitten by it.
