Please note that:

* While we do our best to import data from other apps into UpNote, we cannot guarantee that your data format will be fully retained due to the variety of file sources and their elements. If you encounter any problems while importing, please let us know so that we can assist you in troubleshooting.
* We recommend that you import less than 10,000 notes to UpNote to ensure the app's performance.
