Import content to UpNote

UpNote makes it easy to bring your existing notes and content from other apps into one place. You may import your notes from Evernote, Simplenote, or other file types including Markdown, HTML, RTF/RTFD, Doc/Docx, and TXT*.

Importing RTF/RTFD and Doc/Docx files is only available on Mac.

Import Steps

  • On Mac: Select File > Import from the menu bar.

  • On Windows & Linux: Go to Settings > General > Import & Export and select an option to import your files.

  • Select a file type you want to import to

Import from specific sources

Import from other sources

You can try importing notes from a variety of apps into UpNote by first exporting them from the original app to HTML, Markdown or plain text and then importing the exported files. Whenever possible, please select the top‑level folder for import rather than individual files, so UpNote can access all the content without repeatedly asking for permissions.

Please note: While we do our best to import data from other apps, we cannot guarantee that all formatting or elements will be preserved due to the variety of file sources. If you encounter any issues during import, contact us for assistance.

Performance tip: To maintain smooth performance, we recommend importing fewer than 10,000 notes at a time.
