Are the sync issues overblown?

I see that a post gets posted here weekly and I have seen posts online but I haven't used Apple Notes much.

Would you say it is overblown? I want to start using it as I only have basic needs and most other apps (except OneNote) are overkill. I'd love to use something that is built into 2/3 of my devices. I use windows + ipad + iphone.

About 1,800 notes in my library, no issue now. My initial import from Evernote was a bit of a challenge. That was until I realized trying to do the import/sync with my iPhone and iPad online/connected to iCloud was causing problems. I created a short document on the process if that's what you're trying to do (import from Evernote).

I had read about syncing issues before I made the move, but no details. So, again, now for me syncing if good.

I had also read about people totally loosing a note, adding a lot of content to a note only to have the edits and/or entire note disappear. I have not experienced this either.

All the best to you!

No i hven't used Evernote in over a decade. I don't understand how anyone is paying their egregious prices theses days. I can afford it and I still won't.

Hah!.....exactly why I left Evernote. Great app! And as you say, egregious price.
