Moving from Evernote to Apple Notes

My annual renewal for Evernote is coming soon and I'm considering shifting to Apple Notes, which I have only used minimally in the past. I have done a trial, exporting a few Evernote notebooks and importing them to Notes. It works, but one thing is missing.


Many, many notes that I have saved in Evernote originated as webpages, and I used Evernote's web clipper to save them. When I used that web clipper, it was possible to save all or a portion of a webpage as a note, and the webpage's URL was also automatically saved as part of the resulting note. When I exported some of these Evernote notes to Apple Notes, I got the contents of the Evernote note, but the URL of the original webpage did not come with the note. That's in spite of the fact that when I did the export from Evernote, I checked the option to include links. Links that were in the body of the note did survive the export, but not the URL of the originating webpage. Does anyone know of a way to get that URL to be included?


Mac mini, macOS 13.1

Hi there ptm9539,


You can learn more about importing your notes from Evernote to the Notes app using the helpful steps here: Import your notes and files to the Notes app


Specifically from that article:

Importing from Evernote
On your Mac, iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, you can import Evernote Export files (.enex files). Each .enex file can include one or many notes. When you import an .enex file, each note from Evernote is converted to a new note in Notes.

If a note in Evernote has an attachment or feature that the Notes app doesn't support, that note is imported without that attachment or feature.


Take care!
