Great video and straight to the point. New sub here!
The Notes App is better for journalling that Apple's journal app because of the sharing between devices. It's difficult to type a lot of text on a phone. Also, once just needs to put in the tag: #journal, and then make smart folder to grab all the notes that have the #journal tag. The date of creation and edit (click on creation date to get edit date) is nice being permanently fixed to every note, although I do like to be able to change them in the Journal App, or Day One app.
Fantastic video from an avid Notes user. I refuse to pay for a subscription when the native app works better. The real question is how the hell do you only have 55 (now 56) subscribers? Keep up the great content. I’m a full-time iPad Pro user so I’d love to see iPad productivity videos.
I'm glad that you enjoyed the video and thank you so much for the kind words! That is one of the best compliments that I can get as a creator!
Definitely not better in nearly every category, but if you don’t need a lot, then it works well
I use Notes everyday. The bullet capability really helps me to “simply” keep track of ongoing tasks.
Great video. I upgraded from the 12.9 M1 to the 13 M4 and love it. I’m a digital artist using Procreate, so was most interested in the Pencil Pro features that were not available on the M1. I did get my first Magic Keyboard and like it way more than I thought (I had the Logitech combo on my M1). I’ve found the sound is better on the M4 over the M1. The display difference is there, but would not have been enough to get me to upgrade, but I do appreciate the deep blacks and brighter capability.
Glad you enjoyed the video! The new Apple Pencil is definitely geared towards creatives and artists such as yourself. I think eventually I may upgrade myself!
Goodnotes has a far, *far* superior note taking experience. The only reason i use Apple Notes is because the former doesn’t offer note locking (in 2024 no less 🙄). AN’s a bot disorganized if you’ve used Notability or Goodnotes. And that PDF experience is just… tragic.
I love the notes app! FYI your filter blowing out the contrast in a few shots of the screen. Check your shots bro and use a lower strength filter when the light source is gonna blow your blacks. Otherwise dope video!
I agree 100%! I’m still very new to video recording/editing but I appreciate the advice!
I think another con to Apple Notes is that all your devices need to support newer operating systems if you want good cross-device functionality with all the latest features. #Tags for example don’t work on older Macs which is annoying when you use it on a different device where it does work. So I guess in a way Apple pushes you to buy new devices after a while to be able to have the latest OS.
I agree 100%! One of the reasons that I upgraded my MacBook is because I couldn't download the newest version of Mac OS on my older one.
So there is a way to add subfolders within a folder...the way to do so is by creating a new folder altogether & actually dragging the folder into the folder you want to add it to. I hope that this helps.
Thanks for the tip! But I was actually referring to smart folders. I like the idea of smart folders but I feel like they have some limitations. Hopefully it’s improved in the future! Thanks again!
@@AngelKelley7 ohhhh I get what you're saying. My apologies. I get what you're saying. That can expand a more resourceful flow with Apple Notes. I'm really trying to work harder on using the resources I have.
Ohhhhh. Smart folders. I failed as a commenter. My bad.
I find not to be able to lock a note with a tag a problem.
I agree! It’s very strange especially considering that Apple promotes privacy so much. Hopefully we get that in a future update!
Liked & Sub'd keep the real-life user content coming
Adding documents to notes is that possible ?
Yes! You can share a document to your notes. Once it is shared you should be able to access that document in your notes whenever you need it. Hope this helps!
Don’t forget Siri to open Notes or Quick Note.
Yes! Siri is another good option. I just find Siri to be a little lack luster at times but I hope the new IOS 18 update makes her a much more useful voice assistant!
Helpful. Music unnecessary and irritates.
Glad you found it helpful! I’ll be more mindful of the music going forward!
