This is literally me RIGHT NOW. I have a different app for every single productivity task I do and I'm at the point where I'm thinking about just using all native apple products for everything (notes and reminders). The problem isn't the apps, it's ME.
Yeah! It’s really freeing once you just realize that you don’t really have to make a choice- it also makes it easy to stick to the same app because switching is the worst thing you can do for efficiency
trueeee
If you do any brainstorming where you need a better board for drawing and sketching and mind mapping, apple has the freeform app coming up this month (They promised).
Notes + Reminders problem solved.Same here. Happy with those 2. Simple as F*** and Powerful ones
its me, am the problem its me😭🤣
This reminds me of how I came to rely on using Apple Calendar. I tried everything, the bullet journal, paper and pen, online planners, paper planners, nothing worked well. But the Calendar app works anytime, every time. And it’s synced across all my Apple devices. The time blocks are colorful, and I can see at a glance which days in a month have stuff to do. And I can set recurring events with ease. Just use what’s best for your workflow
I have an android, a laptop and an ipad, relying on apple notes is not an option for the majority of people who doesnt always own apple devices and prefer others. Thats why I use notion
True, the main point of this vid was to show that it worked well for me and to stick to one system
As I have an Android phone and a Windows PC, I chose OneNote. Which is it's very easy to use, plus those from Windows Sticky Notes are also synced to OneNote so that I can read it through my phone.
use what works for you -- I"ve found onenote to be powerful as well. remember the switching costs
Was a Notability/NOTION/GoodNotes junkie. Went back to the basics with Apple Notes (and calendar). The joy of having all my info carry across my iPhone, iPad, macbook pro and mac mini was worth it. Never have to worry about not having all my info on ALL my devices. Been a Mac user for 40 years almost and still learning new things. Great video. Thank you.
Doesn’t nothin do this too?
@@willpeeler8547 Notion was not cloud based so you had to have an internet connection to use it. I tried to make it work for me, but I find Notes just a perfect fit.
I’ve been using apple notes since 2013 with over 600 notes. No way I’m transferring those to different apps.
I have this many devices also, are we spoilt?(!)
Drawing the line at Watch though, no matter how brilliant it is.
And I'm doing my best to not replace a 7yo ipad, but potentially will, purely for the pencil functionality as I think it will be useful for my science lectures.
And I may also try Kindle Oasis to improve reading productivity, although these days I think it's fine to 'be wasteful' and print it - a carbon pawprint each time, compared to a full footprint and another thing I have to charge.
@@cosmicbunny541 i see your 600, and raise you 2401. Since 2017.
But these days Notes is only for a couple recurring notes, and I use my own daily markdown system . But also Trello, and GTD inside of Dropbox Paper. And just started Google Keep, since one work phone is Android. I also use two different types/styles of physical notebooks. And a hardbound Lab book 'for best'. It's a brilliant chaotic mess. I'm just realising that I probably also have this number of different chairs.. and cushion paraphernalia.
Nice video. Totally agree. For me, switching apps was also a form of procrastination. Setting up new apps feels like taking action, when really, I'm just delaying getting things done. Better to just stick to one thing and get it together. Another benefit of Apple Notes is longevity. One thing about all these new apps is you have no idea when things will no longer be supported. The risk of Apple going defunct before all these new apps is close to zero, so I don't have to worry about my data potentially being lost. Which is why I just use native Apple apps for everything. One thing I wish Apple would do though, is integrate Reminders into the Calendar app, the way Google Cal has to do's at the top of each day. Strange that they haven't added that yet.
you can actually link your reminders to the calendar and vice-versa! i just found out about it yesterday . all you have to do is open a task from your reminders and just drag it into the calender app in a scheduled time of a day. and the opposite you just drag a task from the calender and drag it to one of the reminders.there's also a way to link apple notes to calender but idk much about it yet.
Loved this video. I now use Notion as a wikipedia for my work & personal stuff. I tried to use it for daily planning & note taking but it was just too bulky for that. Now, I use apple notes for note taking & microsoft to-do for daily planning. Best combo imo!
It's literally me! I spent two days and one night only for reading about different note-taking apps and got insomnia because of fearing of "false choice". I read about - apple notes, notions, obsidian, microsoft onenote, google keep, evernote....it's frustrating and exhausting. I'm also a "ecosystem-follower" - since a use apple products, i try to use apple apple ecosystem, but cant dive into it fully. Now i'm more apple+microsoft and it is terrible to find tools which working in macos AND windows AND linux (via wsl) seamlessly. I'm tired
I really like OneNote, mostly because I use a Windows PC and laptop for work, but it works just as well on Apple devices using native apps. I find it's much better at clipping web content. I also often import PDF documents that I want to markup and highlight, which works great on my iPad with the Apple Pencil. It works seamlessly between Apple and Windows environments natively, without having to use it in a web browser (although you can if you have to). And I find it's much easier to organize content into notebooks, tabs, and sections. There's also a feature that I really like where it can import your meeting details from Outlook directly into a note.
Downsides:
- Cant create groups of sections
- Fuse sections
I didnt know you can upload pdfs on OneNote, have been using it for years now
The biggest issue i have its the format, at printing is horrible if you use all the space in there, any tips on that?
@@Isaac7913392 I haven't had any issues printing, but you could copy/paste into Word if you're getting weird results. Also, you can nest sections by dragging a section under another like an indent, and you can copy or move sections together if that's what you mean by fusing.
I feel for you.
The greatest feature of any app for notes or reminders or journaling or mail is Search. If you can find it afterwards it doesn’t matter if the fonts are better or whatnot. You need to find it
I dumped OneNote and just use Notes now.
This was so on point, well explained and real. Keep it simple. Thank you for this video!
Thanks for watching! Appreciate you
I too have returned to apple notes. I’ve wasted countless hours and a fair bit of money on all the latest note taking fads. Notion was so complex and took so much time I found myself using apple notes to take notes on how to set up notion for notes…it finally clicked that it wasn’t worth it. Notability and GoodNotes I liked because of the ease of transition between handwriting and typing, plus I could highlight what I typed. That’s my biggest complaint about apple notes. If I type something I can’t go back and write or highlight over it. Hopefully that will come later. Unfortunately until then I’ll keep using GoodNotes for school and apple notes for everything else. If it comes to apple notes then I will move everything to apple notes.
I have found that people spend so much time trying to find a new app to be productive that they fail to be productive.
I love apple notes, its where i write the scrypt of my content but i still use notion for organization. I just focus on make everything simple and it works really well
Very much common sense and back to basics. I have been flabbergasted by the incredible volume of blogs, podcasts, and UA-cam videos that try to tell us that we need to switch to yet another app to get our notes right and our productivity up. I wonder how many people spend most of their time just trying out new apps (of which we don't know will they exist a year from now), and switching to and fro between apps: "Why I switched from X to Y", "Why I went back from Y to X", etc. The native Apple apps have been developing in the right direction for years now and have functionality that advanced subscription-based apps lack. Rather than switching to another app because the Apple native app lacks something, it is probably much wiser to just wait for Apple to upgrade (and perhaps give them a hint about what you expect their apps to do next).
I am a visual person, and the thing that holds me back from using Apple Notes as my one and only note-taking app is the default font which is very hard to read. As a user, I cannot change the default. I can only change the font once I have written the note. That's why I still have one (basically free) other note-taking app besides Apple Notes.
Another point: I wonder why you use Apple Notes for task management. Apple has Reminders, which is an advanced reminder and task management that competes well with Todoist, Things 3, and many other premium todo apps. My experience is that the combination of four native Apple apps: Calendar, Contacts, Notes, and Reminders, makes for an invincible team, particulary since they work together so well. It actually makes me wonder why people spend so much time trying out other paid apps and migrating data many times over, when it would be so much more productive to just fine-tune the combination of native apps that Apple offers.
A big thank you, Shree Nadkarni, for such a sane - be it countercultural - advice. Looking forward to more of your videos!
This video was informative to make me rethink all of my daily apps, reminders, calendar and of course notes!
Thank you!
Excellent! You are so correct. Thank you.
You've hit the nail on the head! Apple Notes is delightfully simple and seamless, with just the right touch of smart folders and tagging wizardry to meet all your note-taking needs
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Thank you. I have spent the past two weeks trying to learn Notion because of its popularity and aesthetic. I had a feeling that Notion was not the solution for me at this time and this video confirmed it. Simple systems = More Likely to be used.
yeah, you don't need to have frills to make it functional
Also, notion is not fully transparent about privacy
This is awesome! So relevant to where I’m at and where I’ve been. Practical and insightful observations. Most PKM solution seekers need to watch this.
I never watched a notion tutorial, it seemed to confusing and then one day i just started using it casually, months later and I love it
Honestly, I just use notion for 3 reasons
1. It runs on all my devices and OSs (windows, mac, linux, android)
2. I'm a huge fan of the / commands, it's like having simplified markdown
3. I got used to it!
I don't use it to plan everything nor as a journal/reading list/home, I just take simple notes with the comfort of slash commands and cloud sync
I was just watching a bunch of vids on using Apple Notes. This was one of the best because of the "getting things done" mindset and all of the great quotes. I hopped around between note-taking apps for years on my Mac, but am settled on Notes now!
great video! I'm literally going through the dilemma of chosing a note app right now, but i'm probably sticking with google keep for the simplicity and integration ans syncing features.
Exactly! The trick is to stay consistent, it’s not about the particular app. The cost of switching is tremendous
Thanks for watching!
This is totally true. I switched to the Google products like 6 months ago. First I just typed in my thoughts. After a while i used traffic light colors to reflect urgency. Eventually i used to add the calendar system. It really started building slowly.
yup, keep it simple
BRO!! YOU ARE SPITTING SUCH FACTS!!!! I was feeling I need Notion because a UA-camr I listen to often is using it. And I'm like... why do I need Notion when I have Apple Notes and GoodNotes?? So thank you for this video! LOL! Because I don't feel like watching a bunch of Notion videos on how to make a note and organize it.... when I do that already in Apple Notes.
Keeping it simple is KEY! Love this!
High quality insights. Keep it up man. Such a great video.
Awesome, love your content!
Thank you!
Great video..totally agree with everything you said. I’ve tried everything and the further I got away from pen and paper (the next best thing being just a text file) the more cluttered my brain became
I use apple notes to quick capture, notion to archive and free form to connect my notes for an overview. I think it’s better to have multiple tools as long as you know how and when to use them to get things done; not every solution needs a hammer.
great video
I've been thinking about switching from notion to apple notes since I got a new macbook because of its simplicity and real tine sync
I liked Notion but there were a lot of bells and whistles, I decided to keep it simple and just use apple notes. If you do, be prepared to not have all of the templates that you can use in Notion. I agree, the real time sync is a game changer also it doesn't log me out all the time.
Thanks for Watching!
Great video! I'm glad I watched this right before new years (:
Good job! I have tried many apps and heard many productivity gurus,… apple notes, apple reminders, good job, keep making videos
Thanks! Will do
This is really what the web and UA-cam jungle needs.. thanks for expressing our feelings and frustrations .. sometimes we got brainwashed that the new app MUST BE BETTER or a MUST HAVE.. otherwise everything we have done was just a mistake .. my goodness .. exactly the same place as u .. and still trying to convince myself not to deep dive in other not apps especially Obisidian ..
that just pop out on my third NOTION TUTORIALS day! ahahhah bro just spit facts thx
Good stuff! Greg McKeown would probably say you have an essentialist approach to note taking and productivity. Using only ONE app is a simple yet effective solution to complex workflows.
You can also scan a piece of paper directly in files app. If you have Dropbox in your files app you can just do it in one step there versus doing a not first.
Excellent video young man.
That video was a true epiphany to me. It was like looking myself at the cloudy mirror I have created with a bunch of apps, just to conclude that I don’t have a simple go-to note-taking app. I keep saying that when you live in the Apple ecosystem, Apple thinks for you so you have to make almost no decision in terms of hardware and software. So why did I leave Apple notes? I suppose I found Evernote back then, an app I stopped using a long ago. I will go back to Apple Notes and Reminders. The simpler the better and the more effective. I even switched from Apple Calendar, which worked amazing, to Fantastical, following Ali Abdaal’s recommendation, but I feel much more confortable with Apple Calendar. I guess the problem most people have, those who aren’t “productivity gurus” who only live to get new apps and updates (do they even relax at some point?), is that we get lost with the features of whatever app while we lose perspective of what we want an app to do for us. Thank you very much for your illuminating video!!!
Apple Notes is actually really good - Only reason I don't use it for all my notes is that on Windows you have to access from iCloud in a browser. If they had a Windows app with inking support I'd probably switch to it.
Agree on not just switching apps constantly, that's the problem with most people, they consume a lot of content about being productive, try all the productivity apps but never actually just focus on being productive.
Great content🎉 you just earned another subscriber
for a non apple user and who doesn't have a mac or an iphone and without an icloud account , what app whould you raccomend?
Great explanation on just getting work done. I've used apple notes for my daily use for quite some time. But after learning programming, I need some notes that can be taken care of with multiple platform like windows and linux. Obsidian work best for me for putting some long documented note.
But still use apple notes for my daily quick note that just need to be jotted down quickly. I've grown accustomed to the apple notes for quite a long time. It's like my personal notepad. Everything is in there. While obsidian is mostly like a big notebook that need to be documented in a proper workflow.
You can't do space repetition in Apple Notes. Nor make flashcards in apple notes.
Well I use Obsidian for my BUJO and productivity, notion I use it for databases and apple notes for any quick notes... its a system that works for me. PS I use reminder all the time with siri and Fantastical for my calendar. It sounds complicated but not really.
I agree with you. Made the same journey. One question: Received documents (e.g. important invoice received by E-Mail) you put into Apple Notes, too or iCloud documents folder?
I would switch around but man Notion learning curve is crazy lol
Great video! Subbed.
Thanks for the sub! and glad you enjoyed it
So essentially people need to build a simple system before it can evolve into something more sophisticated. There seems to be 2 apps for this based on people’s circumstances.
Apple User: Use Apple Notes
Cross Platform User: Use OneNote
I’m an Apple User that has been trying to get my PC into my productivity game and failing over and over again. I think I should just convert my PC into an entertainment suit (gaming and movies) and use my mac for productivity instead of trying to make it work. That way I can just use apple notes, which is by far the easiest way to take notes on the go.
Thank you for the video.
Great vid!
Thank you! Thanks for watching
Hilarious...and soooo true! I've tried them all (well, almost all), and now - yes - I'm back at Apple Notes.
Hi, good quality video, I want to support, well done! I agree with your idea. The best app is the one you don't notice. And it can be several apps, each for its own tasks. Apple Notes is a reliable tool, but it’s insufficient functionality, if you need to work with tables, then Notion, Airtable and so on. And the application itself is not cross-platform, of course, there is a web version, but it's a little different. What you can comfortably do in another app will be pain and suffering in Notes. So it seems to me that we should not cling to one single faithful instrument, since there is none, but take the best of all worlds.
Brother, this video is a eye opener for me 🙏. Subscribed your channel.
I wasted more than 1 year switching apps ☹, I wish i got this video before .
Watching youtubers using Notion, i used notion,
Watch others using obsidian, i used obsidian,
Watching others using logseq, i used logseq,
Moved so many apps and wasted my time thinking i will use the best of the best apps and i ended in full chaos wasting lots of time.
Your video has helped me understand that simplicity is the best thing. I will now use apple notes for rest of my life which is simple, fast and syncs well in the apple ecosystem.
Million thanks to you for helping people like me 🙏
Is it available on PlayStore?
It's propietary, which is a major issue -- I say stick with markdown for anything substantive. It's okay to use a second app for stuff like shopping lists or travel planning.
Great illustration of a very real problem. It is very true: The more choices we are forced to make, the more the quality of our decisions deteriorates. Your video has great information presented in a way tt can be absorbed while being entertained and educated. It is subjective of course, tha is part of hwat makes it excellent. Good advice is not for everyone, it is for those who need it and can benefit from it. ✅✅✅
Such a great video! I am sure that tons of people are at that point, wasting time switching between apps and being victims of the “toxic productivity” hehe.
Thanks for watching! yes, I agree - toxic productivity sucks
I had a hard time finding where write down everything since i have an iPad, android phone and a windows laptop, it was so overwhelming trying to find a notes app, so one day I uninstalled everything and clipped a bunch of used papers and since then i write everything there
Exactly. Often the problem isn’t the app, it’s the person using (or not using) it!
I agree with you ... me too im using samsung note which is compatible with samsung pen and also i find my note on my laptop app and tablet and always syncronized ... also i can syncronize my samsung notes app with one note from Microsoft
Definitely stick to one ecosystem of your choosing that works for you. Instead of being everywhere. No system is perfect 100% .
Been using Notes from day one, tried others but I prefer not using or relying on 3rd party software. Notes syncs instantly across all my Apple devices and is easy to use, it's a huge productivity win.
Damn, a great video!
Thanks so much!
So true. Simp,icily rules👍🏽 Going to try. Thanks, Shree 👍🏽
I use Notion and Notability. Apple notes is nice, and the handwriting support is good, but I need something more structured for use as a second brain and tasking tool.
So, I use Notability for live handwritten notes, and I use Notion for tasking, long-term storage, evergreen information, and basically anything that has been processed and I want to hold onto long-term.
A great Guide!!! I recently discovered Apple notes and Apple freeform app's magic. They are an amazing tool and you don't need to look further as it gets the job done for 95% of the people.
Truly recommend and I'm a sucker for minimalist/digital declutter lifestyle myself.
great vid, just subbed
Thanks for watching!
what would you say is a good equivalent to apple notes for android phones because the default app for android is very bad imo
I will only start considering Apple Notes when they support code formatting e.g. python, java, js, shell, and sql.
This is all good advice, IF Apple Notes would allow me to work in a way that makes sense to me I’d use it.
For example, checklists. I mostly use checklists for shopping trips, meaning once I tick an item off the list I do not want or need to see it again. My mind and eyes find lists confusing enough, without irrelevant items remaining on them. Yet Apple notes will not give me a simple setting like “delete or hide list item when checked”.
So I have to use Microsoft To Dos specifically for checklists, because it gives me that simple functionality and doesn’t bind me to “their way” like Apple always does.
In fact, when I went back to iPhone I found iOS forced Microsoft to remove a handy predictive function that To Dos has on Android.
I like Apple’s products, but at the same time they can be extremely rigid and overbearing and force people to look for alternatives.
true! use what works well for you
I use Google Keep. For me a simple note taking app that's available on all platforms is what I needed.
What browser do you use?
I agree for the most part. I just hate that there are graphical limitations with Apple Notes. If you’re using mainly with text and adding individual images, yes, but if you want to mix graphics, images and scribble, it’s just as bad as OneNote. Freeform does that now but it’s not notes. That’s what I struggle with how I like taking notes. Even with tables, the limitations create visually unappealing results. Maybe I expect too much but I struggle with this as well.
Apple Notes has one huge design flaw…. There isn’t an UNDO button for the times you accidentally deleted text.
On iPad there’s an arrow you tap the back arrow and the text will come back but you can’t have done anything else before
Slowly moving from Evernote to Apple Notes because Apple Notes keeps getting better and better every update.
Just wish there was a way to send emails directly into Apple Notes like I can do with Spark email and Evernote. That’s the only thing keeping me in Evernote.
Thank you - this is an excellent video. Two follow-ups:
1. You can use your watch for Apple Notes? (how?)
2. What do you use for longer notes/journals/etc. ?? (Apple Notes seems more like a task list/to-do list tool)
Again, thank you.
Thank you for the video, I tried to switch from Apple Notes multiple times. Now I was searching for Obsidian reviews to get into that. But all the time when I was trying to make a switch it was a chaos. Truly Apple Notes is very good and provides with me with a lot of functions.
Now I will go 100% in to A.Notes, because there is still much to learn and build my knowledge about the app.
The Apple default apps are amazing and beautiful! They get the job done! bear is something I always wanted to use more though.
For me, Things 3 did for me what Apple Notes did for you. I'm really digging Things 3, especially after using Todoist. I used to spend a whole hour organizing my tasks only to not complete them by the end of the day...
Thanks for the video. I just made the same decision. I was so handicapped by switching apps all the time. I would use Evernote for a couple days. Then move to Obsidian and copy everything from Evernote over. Then Bear etc.. I finally realized I was just wasting time and getting nothing done. Is Apple Notes perfect? No. But it gets the job done and best of all free.
Thanks for watching! Yea its super refreshing to have a simple solution tbh
Correct.
Did to much Research the last weeks with finding the right system and app.
Apple notes with PARA makes so much sense. And prices for some apps are crazy.
Nice video…keep going
Thanks!
Well Done
I used to love Evernote. In the beginning it was easy to use, simple, and fast. Now the interface is crap, every time I launch it, I get some dialog about something I don't care about and they took away the ability to download all my data with a single click.
Any app recommendation for a Linux and Android user who likes foss
simplenote
I might have done this if notes app was available on PC.
You can sign in on iCloud.com and can use the notes functionality, it's not the best but it's a usable workaround
Since I switched to Apple notes and Apple reminders from apps like Notion and such, I am actually productive instead of spending time managing my productivity apps (yes, looking at you, NOTION).
PowerPoint is a good choice for taking notes.
I love Apple note but my app crash every single day on macOS . No data loss, just the app quit by itself most of the time when I interact around a tag or a filter involving tag.
interesting - haven't tried tagging because the search function is so good
Yeah i want to stay with one app but evernote is broken and it's taking way to long to fix and i dont use apple phones!
Which app do you guys use to notes with Apple Pencil?
I love the Apple Notes, but for long notes, like a notebook to use everyday on school, I miss the functionality to zoom in and out… 👀
I've had good experiences with notability
I use Obsidian for everything!
I totally agree… Obsidian is hands down the best; provided people would just learn how to use it.
I prefer using Microsoft One Note on my Macbook. I used to use an app called Joplin, however, I found out Microsoft One has more features and I use grapgics tablet to take notes and Joplin don't support that, but I kept the same system. I organize my notes the same way O used to. And my Joplin notes are in my one drive, so If I need to check old notes, I'll go there.
I tried Apple Notes and I don't like. I only use Apple Notes for drafts and Quick notes, but when I am studying, I Just use Microsoft One Note
Notion is way too complex. Ive only been studying it to possibly sell templates. Other than that I just love the simplicity of Apple Notes.
keep it simple :)
Sorry if this sounds rude, but putting your tasks in a notes app is a really bad idea. Using each tool for what it was designed for is a basic principle of organization and simplicity. It's not about making it complex, it's about doing it the right way. A practical example: if I have a task to do exactly on February 19th (today is February 2nd), the notes app would certainly end up making me forget about it, or I would have to write a lot more to understand days and times. In the end, it would be more complex than a simple task app, as well as less efficient. It wouldn't even work for a basic organization, only considering dates. Imagine with different projects. It's simple: notes app for notes and tasks app for tasks. No excess organization, categorization, etc. Simple, but the right way.
Thanks man, I am not the only one...
Great video, great advices. Quotes are wonderful. This remind me to stop trying to switch between tasks manager and note-taking apps. I'm exhausted now because I used the last year switching from todoist to tick tick and now switching from todoist to things 3 and worst at the same time from bear to obsidian. I paid for all those apps and now feel constraint to use them but I can't... That would defeat the reason I bought them. Bear is beautiful but obsidian is more powerful like multi tabs. I'm a Windows guy so to use bear and things 3 and I to use logitech mx master 3 and logitech keyboard k860 that allow me to switch between os. Now you that I understand you when you talk about decision fatigue. I'm in a fucking marathon of decisions. 😅 Wish I will finally choose one and kill others.
More than a couple of years ago, Apple Notes was a mess and lacked many of the features it has now. I used Notability for a long time, it's no longer necessary for me. But 6 years ago? Apple Notes was worthless except for jotting quick text notes for importing into some other application later.
spotlight search is really great for searching notes. That’s the main reason I fully switched from evernote. Being able to quickly find note that quick is efficient. Plus the syncing with multiple devices is amazing. I can quickly just type a long note on my macbook then quickly jump to my ipad or iphone.
Ive had troubled with evernote that it took time to sync from multiple devices. It’s really not working really well for me. I’m happy that I make the change. It changed my “productivity” to whole new level. I do miss the link note from evernote. Ive always categorized my note as an index. So a quick glance with a tap is something that I’m used to. Now I just have to familiarize myself with tagging and searching.
Good points! I use Alfred so you can do "spotlight search" on Notes as well. I also use Google docs or sublime text to do the same thing. You can link notes on Apple notes too, using Alfred - www.alfredapp.com/ and this workflow
- github.com/sballin/alfred-search-notes-app
That way you can use it in the same way you did Evernote
@@Shree.Nadkarni thank you for the tips. surely will try it out.
@@Shree.Nadkarni Finally got alfred for my mac, and wow I amaze how I didn't use it sooner, with the extension you provided. It is very fast and much more better than spotlight. I really appreciate your tips.
@@Shree.Nadkarni Also to note, I can't really tell you how excited I am for link feature just by using Alfred. It's really a game changer. I can also access the link to my iphone too, which is a big plus. I can't Thank You enough.
Apple Notes is flawless but untill you have to use a Windows device. And also until you need links between different notes.
I couldn’t agree less.
I mean I agree with everything you said but the software to use is Evernote not Apple notes.
Other than that I’m going to put into effect everything you have suggested.
I am going to 2nd using evernote. I started back in 2004 or 2005 and it was SO amazing. I was getting subscription fatigue and wanted to move away to something better (or at least equal) so I switched to Apple Notes about 5 years ago... Then something went wrong and AN lost most of my attachments - they looked like they were there, but they wouldn't come up... So, I started from Scratch with AN...and to this day I have only about 1000 notes and I find AN very slow and unable to search inside of notes for anything of value... I am on the lated MacOS and AN is SLOW to start and quit. My MBPro has 32GB of ram...so it's not my hardware...
I am seriously thinking of switching BACK to Evernote and STAYING there...till I die....
There is a problem with Apple notes while handwriting long notes it takes a toll on your device and the ipad heats up crazy Is there a fix at the moment no!
i've never hand written my notes personally so can't help you out there!
