I recently switched from Evernote to Apple Notes. Every time you post a new Notes video I think, "There's no way I'll find anything useful here. He's already covered everything." And . . every time I'm wrong! Keep up the great work, and keep pushing out the Notes videos.
I’m a huge instant fan, my top reasons. • no excessive chatter •you keep the current screen in view as you mention the steps to get to the next screen. So many people enter into the next screen as they’re still saying what needs to be done to get to that screen which gets really confusing. •I don’t already know most of the items you’re showing. I watch lots of how to Apple videos and most of them show stuff that’s pretty basic. You’ve unearthed a goldmine of tips. Bloody brilliant. (I’m a yank, that may not be what y’all say, I tried me best)
One fun thing that I have done when creating a new folder is to use an appropriate emoticon for the first character in the name of the folder. For example, I created a folder to capture medical information, so I used a stethoscope emoticon as the first character before the “Medical Info” title. I keep a book list for when people recommend a book to me and I have a book image as the first character in that folder‘s name. This makes it easy to spot because I recognize the emoticon right away plus it makes my list more colorful. Certainly not an earth shattering tip but fun anyway. I also have a folder for receipts whenever I make a larger purchase. I use the scan function within the note to capture the receipt along with any other relevant information regarding the purchase. Now I never have to hunt for receipts anymore as they’re right at my fingertips. I have a receipt emoticon at the beginning of that title. I’m an organizational nerd so these little and big things that Notes can do have been really helpful.
I just switched to Apple Notes as my daily driver and so happy I did. I can't wait to leverage these tips. I love highlighting text as well and then saving to notes. Just wish Apple Notes also clipped the URL where I pulled the text from.
The content on this channel is pretty amazing. THIS however is BEYOND impressive. I love Notes and Reminders. The notion of using them together is a game changer! Thanks!
You can get a link into notes from email on iPhone by pressing and holding onto the email (like at the top) swipe up to home screen and open up mail (whilst still holding the email), then dropping the email into the required note. It creates a link with the subject of the email, but the iPad way looks better… I wouldn’t have figured this out without your video 😅 Loving your videos, I look forward to them each time they come out and catching up on the previous ones too, thanks for the ℹ️, this actually helps a bunch
great bit of digging deep - for me the Scan documents option in Notes is a miracle entity - you get an excellent scanned copy. I'm on 6 a.t.m. so looking forward to trying these ideas when I upgrade.
Great video as always, thank you! I just wanted to point out for your last tip and linking mail to notes - you can drag and drop on iPhone from mail into notes or reminders etc and it retains the link. This is very helpful for task manager apps such as Things although it is quite a bit easier on ipad/Mac!
Yep, valid point and just to fulfil this topic - drag and drop also works between reminders and calendar (creating calendar event off of existing reminder), mail - reminders, reminders - notes, notes - reminders as well as files - notes and I'm sure there is more!
I love your instructional videos and have learned something each time. You have the best instructional voice on TH-cam, clear and great to listen to as well. Not sure of the exact origin of your accent, but it’s very calming and easy to follow. Thank you for your efforts for us.
Thank you! As for the accent... spent most of my adult life in the Midlands of England, but have a LOT of family from the Durham/Hartlepool area, and have spent the past almost 10 years living down south - east end of London and Kent. So, the accent is a mixed bag 😂 - Northerners think I sound Southern, Southerners think I sound Northern...
LOVE the copy article to Notes!!! Brilliant. I found your channel recently & have been watching several of your videos. Thank you for sharing such useful content.
I can assure you that Apple are not paying me a dime 😂 - Quite the opposite, they make money from me each time I buy one of their devices. I'm not complaining though, it's helped build a nice little business for me, and I enjoy what I do.
I really enjoyed your tip with the Shortcut. I’m amazed with the Shortcuts potential in the iOS, But I don’t work too much with them because I don’t know very well how to create them and I don’t find so many useful shortcuts around the Internet if you have other useful shortcuts I would like very much to see in your videos.
Very helpful. I have LOVED the updated Notes app and also thought that Notes and Reminders should be integrated better. So glad to see the shortcuts - I’ve been doing a lot of copying and pasting.
You can share emails in iOS to notes. Select the reply arrow. Scroll down to select print. Press and hold the document that pops up. Once it pops up then tap the document. Tap the share icon on bottom left then share to note. I do this all the time. It’s hidden but it works.
Great video. You might add the ability to drag and drop an email from Mail to Notes or Reminders on iPhone in a future update. Not intuitive but works well.
I utilize my calendar far more than reminders. How do you link the notes to your calendar? (Great content btw. Your concise directions and tone is appreciated👍)
Thanks for the video - the options appear quite complex, but like anything, regular use will make them “simple” I’m sure. For Day to Day reminders & To Do, I prefer using the Calendar application on my iPad / iPhone / iMac - very simple (especially using voice only) and Drag & Drop functionality makes daily updating / changed times, days etc. very easy - Cheers
@@pressrepeat2000 For personal use yes but sometimes I’ll have 20 work related reminders to schedule on one day, many of which need a schedule time. That would clutter the calendar app. Works much better in the reminders app.
If you want to share from the Mail app to reminders you can actually use the trick you mentioned earlier. I usually highlight the Subject line of the email and then it gives you the option to “share” to the Share Sheet where you can select Reminders. This will also create a link to the actual email itself that works between iPhone and iPad
There is actually a way to share an email to a note on iPhone. Use drag and drop. Hold down on the email that you want to put in a note and then while holding it use your other hand or another finger to navigate to a note and drop it in. Hope this helps! Btw, thank you for your videos and content, it is all very helpful.
I'm not new to IOS, but I'm primarily an Android user. While Samsung notes can do alot of this, it can't do it as well or as fluidly. I love this channel, and love these videos.
Now let’s see them add it to messages. So many times I need to remember something from a message and have to take the time to create a reminder. I’d if could share, like the other apps, much quicker. Or, allow me to mark as ‘unread’ so I am reminded to go back to it. Guess this is more about reminders than notes, but both options would be awesome!
After binge watching your amazing videos for a few days I’m sitting here with my iPad planning future travel using split screens in Safari and saving interesting links to trip folders in Notes. I didn’t know how to take advantage of these futures until finding your channel. Thanks for what you do and early congratulations on 100k subscribers - which I’m sure you achieve very soon! Maybe an idea for a future video could deal with the advantages of how Contacts, Calendar and Maps can work together on iPhone, iPad and CarPlay. A CarPlay stand alone video would be great too. I got rid of my Mac a couple years ago as the iPad is so capable now, so I skip your Mac videos. Hope I’m not missing anything that applies also to iOS devices.
Much like how you demonstrated sending a Note to the Reminders app, in Apple Mail you can highlight the subject line (or any part of the email) and share it to Notes or Reminders, which will create a link to that email. I like doing that if I want to be reminded of an email at a later date. It's similar to a snooze function you see in other email services, and I wish Apple would add it as an option to their Mail app.

This works exactly the same in iOS. I do it on my iPhone. If you click on the subject line in the email it will bring up the Copy/Look Up/…/Share menu and you can click on Share and then I use it to click on Reminders. That creates a reminder with a link to the original email. And like you mention, you can actually click on text in the email and it will do the same thing. It will create the title of the reminder using the subject line of the email and below that in the note field it will show whatever word(s) you highlighted. You can then edit the reminder while saving it or later in the reminders app. This is a great way to be reminded of an email later. I also wish there was just a quick snooze function that allowed you to be reminded of an email.
@@mehmd1913 I use this on IPad but on the iphone i do not have the print option in the mail app - although i have the same printer installed. It drives me crazy cuz this is the only way i know to transfer the content of the mail to notes and not only having it linked.
Your channel has made a great difference with me and my phone . All of my work depends on it . I recently got the iPhone 14 and I am having trouble with my One Drive All of my files are saved on One Drive . When I am writing and email I am no longer able to attach a file from one drive . It won't even give me that option . Is there a settings I have to change ? Is is this something this iOS won't allow 😢 Thank you again
Great Tips for Apple Notes - thanks for sharing and keep up the great work! I would love to find an option to quickly create a new note with dictation started so that I can begin dictating the contents of the new note. I found a shortcut that sorta works but it asks several questions like language choice, etc before it actually starts dication defeating the quickness element of the process. Another says that "speech recognition is not currently available and you may need to connect to the internet" and does not allow dictation to start even though I am obviously connected to the internet. I look forward to and welcome any additional features to notes that may come in June with iOS 16! Cheers

Stumbled across this. Do you know of a better way to have a template than copying an existing note? For instance, I have a workout template that I have pinned in a folder. I copy that and delete all but the template for a given day/workout and unpin the copy. I then can record all my workout weights/reps/sets/etc. I am unaware of a feature to make this more streamlined.
Hi. From your iPhone you can do a link from email to the notes app. Just long press the specific email. Then without letting go go to a note and paste it there. It will have a link to the email.
FYI in the iphone's mail app : go to "print", pinch out to create a PDF then share to notes or else. Actually, anything you can print you can share this way to notes or any other app you can share with
My frustration is not having a common pool of hashtags between Notes and Reminders - or have I missed something? Any help on this from the Community would be appreciated. I have moved over to Notes as my “goto” place for saving day to day information from receipts and recipes to blog ideas and personal development prompts and use hashtags to sort and quickly find.
@@supersurfer1 in the email list view, press down on the email and move it about until it’s following your finger (let’s call it Finger 1)… then while making sure Finger 1 doesn’t let go of the screen, use another finger (Finger 2) to swipe back to the Home Screen and open a new note in Notes, then you can release Finger 1 and the email will be dropped in the new Note. Sorry, best way I can describe it using text 😂
@@sonicskyline You are a legend. Ive been using Android for the last several years and decided to switch and really enjoying all these features in iOS. Thanks
Hello, i have been using clip article to notes for some time. Great shortcut. However I now regularly get an error message saying „that the downloading of external websites with this shortcut is not allowed“. How come? What can I do to fix this?
Hi there, thx for this usefull video. But i have a trouble that i cannot clip article to notes app. I activated the shortcut but it didnt copy. You know why?
I had the same issue. I dug around the shortcut itself, I'm pretty new at Shortcuts btw, and I realized at the very bottom, the last action "Create note with" is not setup correctly. If your's is like mine it will say: Create note with [Body] in [Folder] Right click on macOS or tap and hold on iOS [Body] and select the variable [Text]. And you should be good to go.
Switching from Evernote to Notes is a no brainier but I can find an easy way of transferring or copying from Evernote into Notes. I’ve tried using OneNote as an intermediary but it’s not that straightforward. Help!
I hope Apple software guys see this video and sort out the issues you point out - as in the longwinded version. You should get commission from them as a freelance consumer system tester
You can actually share an email link to Notes and Reminders: From the email list view, long press the email and drag that email outside of the app into Notes or Reminders and you'll see a link created. Also, in iOS 16, you can create Quick Notes as well.
Not sure, icloud is very slow with attachment exchange being uploaded from ipad. Notes doesn't tell you whether your info is safely in the cloud or what progress has been made on each note or whether you have a tech problem, eg in airplane mode or lost wifi. Notes is ok for simple text but otherwise I find it struggles.
How to take screenshot of a web page in safari and put in notes I use evernote for that also tag and organise accordingly in different folder of interest. Wanna get away from evernote if it works in notes
it seems the section integration with reminder has been resolved by apple and ou can make a new video on it plus there is no option of copy link available now
Hi how do I stop the phone loosing notes? I have saved notes that disappear after a while?. Why are notes linked to each email address? If I have to change my email it looses the notes. Cheers warren
If you hold on a piece of mail on the iPhone you can drag it around, back out of the mail app while still holding it, open notes, create new note and drop it in the note. This will create a link to the email on your iPhone
Question: I like to keep my email clean so I tend to move all of my read emails to trash. If I am creating a link in Notes or another application to an email what happens if the email is deleted? Is there a place to keep emails that I want to save for some such purpose?

All the underlining and turning things yellow drive me crazy when I type in dates or times (or it just *looks* like dates or times). It’s often meant to be informational, not a link; e.g., rise bread 1:00., bake bread 3:00, etc. I also don’t have great eyesight and yellow is AWFUL. Does anyone know a setting that will stop it doing this (like the autocorrect setting)? I know I can type it differently, but I prefer that my notes conform to everything else I ever write or type. Dark mode probably helps with color - but it still doesn’t get around links being created. Thanks.
This guy has some of the most useful and helpful tips that makes me want to use iOS only apps like Mail and Reminders and Calendar 📅 definitely SUBSCRIBED ⚡️⚡️❤️
All your videos are so good. I actually am all in on Apple Default Apps because of all your tips and tricks. You got a good thing going keep killing it bro :)
Not yet - I'm working through the old videos as I can. I'll push this one up the list of priorities, so can hopefully get it done soon. Keep an eye on the Membership page.
Great video, notes is a very good productivity/note taking app for IOS. I really miss choosing color option for text in Notes app. Hoping Apple brings it to Iphone (it is available in MacOS only)
Yeah, I’m really looking for that too. I’m thinking to use the underline formatting and the bold to workaround but is not quite the same. I’m really hope that this feature be introduced in iOS 16.
I just discovered a very interesting feature in Apple notes, if you insert a link for TH-cam and you select the big icon for the link you can preview the video inside the note without even opening TH-cam app. But only works with the big icon, if you select transform to small image it doesn’t work. I think that this feature could be very interesting for researchers because instead of putting the link and open the link it’s possible to preview directly from the Apple note the video while you are taking notes or writing something about that video.
Not sure what you mean by 'big icon' I'm afraid? Are you doing this on the iPhone? As I've not been able to replicate what you're referring to, and it does sound interesting...
@@ProperHonestTech When you insert a link on apple notes you get a wide icon where you click to go to link. If you hold the icon you get some options: copy, share, Large Images & delete. To do what I said in the previous comment you have to change to the Large Images and then you will have a big icon which can even do the preview of the video.
It would be helpful if Notes had a date and time stamp so that I can add a date or time into the note in any format. Perhaps it is there and I haven’t found it!
I didn’t understand why share a copy to reminder not appears, until I saw your post Howard. One workaround is to create the note first typing it, send the copy to the reminder with the note, then do the handwriting there… sure you test it already but just in case you didn’t… thanks!!
Sorry, Apple use to be intuitive. Now it’s a witches brew you have to spend a lot of time learning. I’ve tried to create a short cut to simply bring up a list when I say, “Hey Siri, car list”. Then the list of 12 items pops up, from reminders or notes or I don’t care, so I can read the list. I found a shortcut that I maybe able to modify that works. But I can’t modify it or see all the steps in the one that is a working shortcut. I really hate this Apple stuff sometimes.

Hello! Your tips were awesome and actually something that I could try and set up!! Thank you so much…..
Great video. Many thanks!
In split screen you can drag an email into your target notes folder. This creates a link to the email within the folder.

Stumbled across this. Do you know of a better way to have a template than copying an existing note?
For instance, I have a workout template that I have pinned in a folder. I copy that and delete all but the template for a given day/workout and unpin the copy. I then can record all my workout weights/reps/sets/etc. I am unaware of a feature to make this more streamlined.
very useful, thanks for this.
Hi. From your iPhone you can do a link from email to the notes app. Just long press the specific email. Then without letting go go to a note and paste it there. It will have a link to the email.
Great tips as always 👍
FYI in the iphone's mail app : go to "print", pinch out to create a PDF then share to notes or else. Actually, anything you can print you can share this way to notes or any other app you can share with
My frustration is not having a common pool of hashtags between Notes and Reminders - or have I missed something? Any help on this from the Community would be appreciated. I have moved over to Notes as my “goto” place for saving day to day information from receipts and recipes to blog ideas and personal development prompts and use hashtags to sort and quickly find.
You can also drag and drop emails into the notes app on iPhone, and it will create a direct link.
How do you do that. I can't figure it out ?
@@supersurfer1 in the email list view, press down on the email and move it about until it’s following your finger (let’s call it Finger 1)… then while making sure Finger 1 doesn’t let go of the screen, use another finger (Finger 2) to swipe back to the Home Screen and open a new note in Notes, then you can release Finger 1 and the email will be dropped in the new Note.
Sorry, best way I can describe it using text 😂
@@sonicskyline You are a legend. Ive been using Android for the last several years and decided to switch and really enjoying all these features in iOS. Thanks
@@supersurfer1 no prob glad I can help
Hello, i have been using clip article to notes for some time. Great shortcut. However I now regularly get an error message saying „that the downloading of external websites with this shortcut is not allowed“. How come? What can I do to fix this?
You can sort of share the email through printing it as PDF then share to your notes
Great video. Thanks 🇳🇿NZ
Good video
Interesting and informative
Keep it up 👍
Hi there, thx for this usefull video. But i have a trouble that i cannot clip article to notes app. I activated the shortcut but it didnt copy. You know why?
I had the same issue. I dug around the shortcut itself, I'm pretty new at Shortcuts btw, and I realized at the very bottom, the last action "Create note with" is not setup correctly.
If your's is like mine it will say: Create note with [Body] in [Folder]
Right click on macOS or tap and hold on iOS [Body] and select the variable [Text].
And you should be good to go.
Switching from Evernote to Notes is a no brainier but I can find an easy way of transferring or copying from Evernote into Notes. I’ve tried using OneNote as an intermediary but it’s not that straightforward. Help!
Great video!!
He is the best alpha-tester outside apple.
From within a note, you can also say: hey Siri, remind me of this at 10 PM, and it will create the note as a reminder at 10 PM
I hope Apple software guys see this video and sort out the issues you point out - as in the longwinded version. You should get commission from them as a freelance consumer system tester
You can actually share an email link to Notes and Reminders: From the email list view, long press the email and drag that email outside of the app into Notes or Reminders and you'll see a link created. Also, in iOS 16, you can create Quick Notes as well.
Not sure, icloud is very slow with attachment exchange being uploaded from ipad. Notes doesn't tell you whether your info is safely in the cloud or what progress has been made on each note or whether you have a tech problem, eg in airplane mode or lost wifi. Notes is ok for simple text but otherwise I find it struggles.
Hi I noticed the shortcut doesn’t seem to work with Notes when clipping article. I keep getting an error.
The clip article to note short cut does not work, how to fix, pls ?
It doesn't appear to be a option to share this video with notes? I am going to copy this url and enter into notes. I must be missing something?
How to take screenshot of a web page in safari and put in notes I use evernote for that also tag and organise accordingly in different folder of interest. Wanna get away from evernote if it works in notes
it seems the section integration with reminder has been resolved by apple and ou can make a new video on it plus there is no option of copy link available now
Hi how do I stop the phone loosing notes?
I have saved notes that disappear after a while?. Why are notes linked to each email address? If I have to change my email it looses the notes.
Cheers warren
If you hold on a piece of mail on the iPhone you can drag it around, back out of the mail app while still holding it, open notes, create new note and drop it in the note. This will create a link to the email on your iPhone
Question: I like to keep my email clean so I tend to move all of my read emails to trash. If I am creating a link in Notes or another application to an email what happens if the email is deleted? Is there a place to keep emails that I want to save for some such purpose?
Create a folder to keep them in instead of deleting if you need them for longer then 30 days
@@corneliakobilke4638 good idea. Thanks
Hi can you help? I’ve added clip article to note shortcut but no text is added to the note?

@@robdamiano7738 Hi Rob, mine was the same, tried your suggestion, and now works perfectly. Thank you.
I dont see line below date and no reminder option when I do share copy
All the underlining and turning things yellow drive me crazy when I type in dates or times (or it just *looks* like dates or times). It’s often meant to be informational, not a link; e.g., rise bread 1:00., bake bread 3:00, etc. I also don’t have great eyesight and yellow is AWFUL. Does anyone know a setting that will stop it doing this (like the autocorrect setting)? I know I can type it differently, but I prefer that my notes conform to everything else I ever write or type. Dark mode probably helps with color - but it still doesn’t get around links being created. Thanks.
This guy has some of the most useful and helpful tips that makes me want to use iOS only apps like Mail and Reminders and Calendar 📅 definitely SUBSCRIBED ⚡️⚡️❤️
Thanks as always! (You remind me, I need to make one for Calendar!) 😂
All your videos are so good. I actually am all in on Apple Default Apps because of all your tips and tricks. You got a good thing going keep killing it bro :)
I wonder if Reminders and Calendars talk to each-other
Do you have a pdf for this one?
Not yet - I'm working through the old videos as I can. I'll push this one up the list of priorities, so can hopefully get it done soon. Keep an eye on the Membership page.
@@ProperHonestTech thank you!
Great video, notes is a very good productivity/note taking app for IOS. I really miss choosing color option for text in Notes app. Hoping Apple brings it to Iphone (it is available in MacOS only)
Yeah, I’m really looking for that too. I’m thinking to use the underline formatting and the bold to workaround but is not quite the same. I’m really hope that this feature be introduced in iOS 16.
@@Jffb82 Agreed, i do the same. Fingers crossed for IOS 16.
I just discovered a very interesting feature in Apple notes, if you insert a link for TH-cam and you select the big icon for the link you can preview the video inside the note without even opening TH-cam app. But only works with the big icon, if you select transform to small image it doesn’t work. I think that this feature could be very interesting for researchers because instead of putting the link and open the link it’s possible to preview directly from the Apple note the video while you are taking notes or writing something about that video.
Not sure what you mean by 'big icon' I'm afraid? Are you doing this on the iPhone? As I've not been able to replicate what you're referring to, and it does sound interesting...
@@ProperHonestTech When you insert a link on apple notes you get a wide icon where you click to go to link. If you hold the icon you get some options: copy, share, Large Images & delete. To do what I said in the previous comment you have to change to the Large Images and then you will have a big icon which can even do the preview of the video.
I can’t open the article in notes after clipping. It’s blank
When I type a date and/or time into a note on my iPad or iPhone iOS does not recognize it as a date or time, so I can’t do what he suggests.
It did work, it just took several minutes to show up in the note.
I hope Cupertino is paying attention to you. Simple overdue fixes.
short cut didn't work with me nothing in note ..
It would be helpful if Notes had a date and time stamp so that I can add a date or time into the note in any format. Perhaps it is there and I haven’t found it!
I've tried several times to become a supporter and repeatedly fail with the message that says my email is not valid.
Nice, I only wish reminders integrated with notes and not the other way around. Apple doesn’t make this easy.
One weird glitch is if your note is handwritten and you want to share a copy to reminders. The reminders app will not show up. Makes no sense
Interesting glitch, wasn't aware of it!
I didn’t understand why share a copy to reminder not appears, until I saw your post Howard. One workaround is to create the note first typing it, send the copy to the reminder with the note, then do the handwriting there… sure you test it already but just in case you didn’t… thanks!!
@@HilarioAntonioPerurena yes I’ll add a text title/heading first see if that works. Thanks
Or you could just say to Siri “remind of this note tomorrow at 5”
Sorry, Apple use to be intuitive. Now it’s a witches brew you have to spend a lot of time learning. I’ve tried to create a short cut to simply bring up a list when I say, “Hey Siri, car list”. Then the list of 12 items pops up, from reminders or notes or I don’t care, so I can read the list. I found a shortcut that I maybe able to modify that works. But I can’t modify it or see all the steps in the one that is a working shortcut. I really hate this Apple stuff sometimes.
You’re my new fav iThings tips person!! Informative, clear instructions, nice pace. So happy the algorithm recommended you!! 🫶🏽😊
Very helpful, thanks.
