Are you using Apple Notes or something else to organize your life?

Hey, mate. I noticed comments talking about vocal fry. If you're looking to reduce vocal fry, I've found that it helps to practice speaking more with the _center to back_ of your tongue. This tends to force you to use a slightly higher register by keeping your vocal chords from being too relaxed. It'll take A LOT of work. Vocal fry like yours also isn't too bothersome so long as you don't speak with a nasally tone, which you seem to avoid for most of the vid. Vocal fry is the "it thing" in vocals to hate, at the moment. Only fix it if _you_ feel like you should. Another thing that will help is to turn down the gain on your microphone. I noticed it sounds quite strong and gain tends to amplify lower resonance.

That's amazing! I had no idea that you could do all that in Apple Notes. I especially like the organizational possibilities of certain notes and docs. Wow! Thanks for making this video. You've definitely blown my mind with this!

Great video! Thanks a lot for sharing these tricks and techniques. I also love how you’re humbly responding to the comments giving you feedback to try to improve your future videos. Hope all that effort pays off and your channel grows to be big.

I’m currently using Apple Notes and I love it! Thanks for sharing!

phenomenal content, straight to the point, no ads or marketing or lies for money. I like it and I wish you the best . from Middle East with love

I am really appreciating iNotes the more I use it. And I have a ton of note applications, which makes me like Apple notes so much more!

I’ve been documenting all my ideas and practically my entire life in Apple Notes for years, ever since I got my first iPhone in 2014. I’m so pleased with all the brilliant features Apple has added to it over the years. It’s cool that I’m not the only one whose experience with it has been so great!

This is very useful! I didn’t even know about folders under folders. Gotta do it now so my notes will look cleaner! Thanks for the tips!

Don’t forget the OCR features for scanned docs.

Apple note is really great. For some specific tasks like my daily working note i use Obsidian.

Thank you for sharing your excellent experience with Apple Note. Just like you, I've tried almost every note taking app but end up back to Apple note no matter how.

Thanks for your video! I have been using Apple notes for years, but your reading lists make me surprise !

Really great tips! I will use almost all of these. Thanks

This is just the video I'm looking for. Really helpful!

Lots of great tips for me to learn. Used Apple Notes on iPad 1 but found it lacking compared to other notes apps. Gave it another try while watching your video and lots of pretty cool features.

Thanks for the information

Great video, I was using Notability because I thought Apple notes lacked file organisation and it turns out it has even complex filter options! After this discovery I might start using it

Incroyable, je découvre que Notes est en fait très complet, merci !

I agree . I spent so much time looking around for other apps etc

These tips are awesome. Yeah, I found out that you can share a note with someone and then both you and the other person can edit, and get notifications when you or they update that file. It can become a replacement for messaging

Great primer. I use it but scratch the surface notes mostly and save stuff like backup passport and travel items when traveling. I used Evernote extensively long ago. I need to invest some time with this. Thanks

Great tips! I use Apple Notes on my iPhone, iPad and Windows laptop. I wish Apple Notes on my Windows laptop could be easier to use.

Just started with GTD and trying to use Notion. As I’m just learning it as well I was getting very frustrated. I defaulted to Apple Notes as my InBox (especially for the web links ), but now you’ve shown me I can do so much more with it that I might not need motion at all!

Yes, this is gonna help. Thank you!

Great content ❤ love it

I use it but I did not know the extent of all these features. Now I like it even more

Thanks, pal. Good selection, while nothing new so far.

Love the video and Apple Notes ❤

I-cloud synchronization is my top reason using Apple Notes. It's SOOOOOOO convenient! :)

Great simple to follow vid... Ques does noted integrate well with reminders app? If so how and maybe a vid on that?

Using Notes a lot, but need to admit it is many lights year behind OneNote. In Apple Notes formatting table is a horrible experience, not mention to change image size. Appreciate to keep Notes simple but sometimes too simple means non usable. Btw nice video.

I’ve always had issues with Apple Notes syncing quickly. I use Craft as a result of that issue, its also go better back linking.

Everything Apple makes is the best.

as always just share with peaple on mac only?

This video comes out literally right after I completely build my workflow in Notion 🙃 - Intro is extremely accurate though. I will probably be back to Apple notes in no time...

Great video mate - If you dont mind me asking what software are you using to edit your videos? I like the moving background (rounded edges) and your Picture in Picture also. Much appreciated !

New to channel love the content. Two questions. One is can I change the size of text when I type? Secondly what is pages for compared to notes? What use can I use pages compared to notes

combination of apple notes and obsidian has been the sweet spot for me. apple notes on mobile for its simplicity, quick, on-the-fly thoughts/lists/etc that need to be jotted down that acts as an inbox system. from there i'll make the decision at a later time on whether it is worth moving into my permanent workflow setup in Obsidian.

nice video man love the screen recording and that it tracks your cursor on iPad. Is that tracing because you are using the apple pencil?

Great video! Totally weirded out by people talking about vocal frying in the comments though. Who raised them 😂

Thanks for an insightful video. Notes has pretty much replaced Microsoft Word and One Note for me.

I wanted to know more details about your guitar in the background. I subscribed in case I can find out more about that in the future.

My Quick Notes does not come up with Add A Link showing!

I use notes to take notes from books that I'm reading, but creating a list with all the notes as hyper link is amazing, I thought ahead to improve your tip even more, just sort the book list by categories

Colored folders and color fonts would be great in 2024.

I use apple notes for a few things, but I have apple everything and notes scattered all over the place. time to get religious with apple notes. nice video.

Great video! I don’t have the add link feature when I open quick notes on Safari? And another problem - I’m missing the feature “add to quick note” in the share menu on safari? Any ideas how to fix that? Thanks for your help!

Gotta question for you: I've always used my note app not just for written notes but for web clippings too. It seems you don't do that. Where do you put stuff you clip from the web then?

So I do use Apple notes, but only to a certain extent. My home machines are Apple machines, but I still have a work laptop that runs windows if Apple created a native Notes app for windows then I would consider switching but I can't because they don't.

What lapel mic are you using? Sounds crispy.

Samsung notes does all these except the windows version has a bit of a lag, and you can't link a note within a note (just web links)

Unfortunately it misses an export to pdf function or the like where you can chose which notes you want to export Therefore it‘s not a good notes app

It lacks two fundamental thing sfor me sadly, which is the reason I Still use GoodNotes instead - 1) the ability to preset PDF as repeating template. Like, if I scan a document and want to use it as repeating background I need to keep reimporting it, instead of it being set as default background, and 2) It doesn't have A4 size page cutoff - instead it scrolls into infinity, which is troublesome for me when printing documents. There are few smaller gripes too, such as being able to use apple pencil in line with typed text, with both overlapping, instead of either using one or another, and few more, but those I can get over - it's two above that are dealbreakers for me sadly. If those two features could be added, IMO, it would be perfect, and I could abandon GoodNotes - alas... I cannot.

Hello. Any body having battery draining fast and iPad heating up when using Notes? (Ipad pro 11” M2 / ipad OS17.4.1) and might know how to fix it. Have been trying to change to note taking on the ipad to avoid carrying several physical notebooks.

Do you put pdf’s book in Apple notes?

Can you export notes into pdf or excel file?

How to I find text in a note? search gets me to the note, but not the specific part of the note. What am I missing?

But notion has public APi, as a programmer, it’s very useful

the hashtag thing is absolutely sick! thats actually fire, however idk i just feel like im a goodnotes guy. although, i hate that now the payment is another subscription

I have at least 1,000 old pictures I want to scan and keep "in the cloud" Can Apple Notes handle something that large and not grind to a hault or give me some crazy notice 700 pics in and say "Limit reached" Thanks for any feedback.

dude how do you not have more subs?

My problem with Apple Notes is that if I send a note by Apple Mail, it looses advanced formatting like tables. Do I miss something?

Apple notes is great they just need to fix the issue when you paste a PDF or image into your notes it separates it from your text or writing.

I do use Apple notes for basic quick capture and storing shorts lists and snippets of important info I need to get to quickly, but I find it does not work for me as my main notes app/detailed note taking. 1) No collapsible lists. My notes can get pretty long and all that constant scrolling is not fun (guess I could just write less or break them up but that would be too easy). 2) The color scheme. That seems petty - but it does matter when you have to look at it all the time. 3) The fixed color choices for writing with the Apple Pencil. I don’t particularly care for any of the default colors other than black and it’s aggravating to have to change the one color you can change. 4). Export is terrible. Clearly not intended for exporting at all, but if you did want to export is has a nasty habit of chopping things off mid letter - unless they have changed that recently. 5) The organization scheme. It’s better than it was particularly since they added tags and smart folders - but still don’t love it. I’ve gotten way too used to non-folder based structures, bi-directional linking, block based structures and all those sorts of things. Thanks for the video! Great suggestions.

Can't export to standard formats like markdown. Thanks but no thanks.

Excellent demo of what Apple Notes is capable of. Just some feedback - the audio was very difficult to listen to with your voice cracking / high pitch or whatever its called, I am not sure, if you can look into that.

03:15 what is a smart folder !!?

the reason i'm not using apple notes is that the app doesn't do highlights (this is ridiculous)

Bro has Vocal Fry but anyway great tips!

I use notes because it's free and I can access all my documents and take scans from my phone and share them easily to my desktop. I know other apps make it possible, but you also have to pay for those.

So, I have all these notes in google keep. How can I move all of those into notes? I'm a hoarder. I steal stuff all the time and put it in keep. Help me to become a better citizen.

Try BoardNotes

My notes app lags when i am over 10-20 pages

Notes is awesome. My whole life is in Notes 😅. The Apple ecosystem in general is awesome.

I have the same opinion. I tried almost every note apps out there. Apple notes is the best for most people.

I use Evernote. I’ve tried others. And keep coming back to Evernote. I like simplicity. Maybe if Apple put no effort in making design attractive I’d give it another try.

*Laughs in TickTick*

Bear does pretty much all these and is prettier. Plus it supports Markdown.

I am in the center of the midwit meme using paid versions of Mem, Reflect, and Lazy. Funny because I scan all my important docs with Apple Notes knowing that it’s my safety net note taker.

Awesome content, great review of the Notes app! Hey, just a tip, if you don't use so much vocal fry (aka creaky voice) it'll be more pleasant to watch your videos ;)

Wow, that’s very funny. I also was getting pretty annoyed by the vocal fry, but again as the gentleman said before were gentle person, great content.

No reminder feature is just too big of a miss

Bear notes > Apple Notes > Obsidian

Apple Notes is a decent app, the biggest drawback it has is how primitive Markup is. (no zooming in, no smooth stroke)

Great tips. Please no background music. Very distracting. Thank you.

Good video but so much vocal fry 🙉

For those who aren't in the apple walled garden... OneNote does all these things and more, and on every platform. You say no other platform syncs that quickly... OneNote does. Pretty much, uh, all these things OneNote did, and first, and in my personal opinion... better. Good vid, cheers.

Great info Chris thanks! Although, very hard to follow, too much vocal fry.

good luck exporting any of that

Obsidian is better. Fast, crossplatform, has possibility to sync with own cloud

Be careful with password protecting notes. I converted my password protected notes to fingerprint encrypted and it deleted all of my notes.

With an accidental click, I lost all my Notes with no back up. Don’t risk anything important in Notes until they fix that.

Good choice for free app . But notion is better

amazing video, but please stop vocal frying 😭

Good video, but your voice rattles all the items on my desk. Consider rolling some bass off of your voice.

Apple notes is not bad. But what makes it useless is the fact that it doesn't search PDFs like Evernote does, for example. If you have hundreds of documents stored there and they can't be searched, the app can be as fast as you like. Unfortunately, it is then no longer of any use.

Close to overuse of ‘actually’. Friendly suggestion

Please let ur voice tone higher next time, perfect video but the voice make it hard to listen

I fully agree!!! Apple notes is simple but fast and productive to take the notes! When I saw the meme, I change my mind that FOMO every productive tools. Now I focus on all Apple apps And I really happy that we are on the same page! SUBSCRIBED!!
