This is super helpful! I was bending over backwards trying to figure out which notes app to subscribe to while going back to school... I have learned that the apple notes app will do just fine.

I’ve watched a ton of tutorials and reviews about this topic and this is the single most helpful video so far. You’ve chosen the most useful topics and explained in a comprehensive manner. Good job. I Subscribed.

Christopher - An excellent video. - - - However, 98% was about how Apple Notes works. I think your followers would appreciate a follow-on video that explains how you use it. For example:
* How do you decide to make a new folder? Is it just a matter of the 'need of the moment" or do you have a pre-conceived design that you try to adhere to ?
* Tags - You said you rarely use them. Why not?
* Why do you put Notes about a project into a "project" folder?

Your demo Apple Notes database had only 35 notes. Do you have another with hundreds /. thousands of notes? If yes, how do you structure that database.

Thanks for considering.

Your timing is spectacular! I just migrated to Apple Notes and this video is super helpful. I learned quite a few new tricks from it. Thanks so much!

Hope Apple Notes, in the near future, provides markdown and slash command menu (like in notion). It will be great to also have something like a snippet expander to quickly insert current date or time, or regularly used templates.

I have a Notes/Reminders/Calanders task management system on my iPhone and iPad, but I really wish they integrated more. Like I should be able to put a reminder in a Note that shows up in my Reminders. And reminders should show up on my Calendar, or at least have the option to.

Ahh, I was looking on your channel about 6 hours ago for an Apple Notes video. Crazy synchronicities!

[Icarsuss]

I have tried many note-taking apps. LIKE A LOT. but i always come back to apple notes and they have improved this app alot. So, I am just sticking to this app.

[jeffhale]

Thanks for sharing. I have learned so much about Notes beyond basic features. I use Notes daily. Blessings on your day.

[AllenSchubert]

Thanks for this video! I've used Notes for ages and figured there lots of other features, but I don't know them. Now, at least, I have some ideas of what I might want to do with Notes! [I only found your channel a couple days ago. I'm considering going with just an iPad instead of the old 2014 MacBookPro, and your channel seems very iPad-themed!]

[GamerRadar]

It’s crazy that apple notes are extremely more intuitive and nicer/better than one Note… this video just made me question my notion.. i might just move over to this for my notes instead.

[carinebelle]

Thank you, this video was excellent and I’ve learned new tips/way to use Apple notes more efficiently 😊

[danielsmith]

Brilliant video! Burning question - what’s the macOS finder icon for in your iPad dock and how did you get it?! Thanks 🙏🏻

[TunedByJ]

Love Notes App it's become such a powerful everyday app for me

[dmarcinkowski]

Great video! I have been embracing Notes with the new updates. There's now a blockquote option, so you don't need to use monospace text. Also, Quick Notes can be added just by swiping with a finger on the iPad.

[AdrianEarnshawMusic]

Great video, and very useful as to what's coming in iOS17. I would love the ability to change the default font for notes.

[drdentrepair]

Excellent video. I did not know about typing the 2 greater than symbols. thanks for that. With the tables, I do like that you can touch the 3 dots in a table line or column and move them around. that's been helpful.

[AhmedYahya]

Hey Chris, great video as always!
Your points (the markdown and rtf) + (tables & formulas) had me thinking: isn’t it about time we had extensions for Notes? What extensions would you want to see if that was to ever happen?

[staroversky]

Chris, I see that you also use Obsidian. How do you differentiate what goes into notes and what goes into Obsidian?

[jaxweby]

It really seems like Apple Notes has been improving over time, and that's something I've completely neglected in my search for a good note-taking app because I've thrown every random thought into Apple Notes to die because I hardly check it. With these changes, I really think it's time for me to give it a proper shot, so thank you for this or I'd never have known! The ability to link to other notes is what's making this extra viable considering how competitors also have such a function.
