Top 10 Tips For Seniors to Master Apple Notes

[@nemiaidid]

Although I am not a senior, yet, I prefer watching your videos for all things iOS. No cheesy music, no gimmicks, no unnecessary talk. Just straight to the point, concise and easy to understand.

[@EllensTipsForiOS]

Thanks NemiAidid! Appreciate your support!

[@naka-YAYA-plaza]

YOOOO I WAS LITERALLY ABOUT TO COMMENT THE SAME THING! Im 27 and I have already mastered apple notes but I like these videos for seniors just by the way it is explained and the simplicity of it and occasionally I actually learn something I didn't know! Thank you!

[@mrnoedahl]

That is the old fashion way. Straight to the point with no gimmicks. Glad you like it.

[@mencken8]

This is a clear and concise presentation of Apple Notes for anyone.

[@EllensTipsForiOS]

Thanks so much Rico567

[@MeriMorMick]

Very nice. I like learning from you. No silliness or showing off, just right down to helpful information. Those young fellas out there could learn a lot from your presentation.

[@EllensTipsForiOS]

Thanks so much Meri!!

[@1wholovestrees]

I was ready to toss my Notes app, then download what I thought would be a better one. This video has opened my eyes to what I didn’t know, and I will be keeping my Notes app. Thank you so much for this informative video!

[@EllensTipsForiOS]

You’re welcome Beth! Glad you found the video useful!

[@RichHernigle]

I’m several years off from being a “senior” but I do have gray hair. You must have been a teacher. Great class! I’m going to binge watch the rest of your videos. Thanks for making this video.

[@EllensTipsForiOS]

Thanks for the kind words Rich!! I appreciate your support.

[@aliciagillaspie3332]

Ellen, what a wonderful video tutorial on how to use Apple Notes! You spoke clearly and slowly enough for your listeners to be able to grasp what you were saying. And by slowly showing what to click on to achieve the tasks you made it so easy to follow! My husband has so many issues with using his iPhone to it’s fullest ability. I can’t wait to share this video with him! Thanks so much for making and sharing this video!

[@EllensTipsForiOS]

Thanks so much Alicia! I’m glad you found the video useful! It makes my day to here from people like you! Hope it helps your husband as well.

[@barbarae.9734]

I’ve only read a handful of comments, so I will not repeat, but I wholeheartedly agree that your videos are GREAT for many reasons. Please for us old folks trying to keep up with technology…Keep up the good work!😊

[@EllensTipsForiOS]

Wow, thank you Barbara!

[@donaldburton6869]

Wow! I agree with Alicia. You are a very easy person to learn from. You put the information out there for us slow learners to grasp it easily. I’ve been “playing” around with notes for awhile now and I learned so much in a few minutes listening to you. I’ve watched a few other videos on this topic and they all talk too fast for me to see or listen to. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

[@EllensTipsForiOS]

Thank you so much Donald! I appreciate your support!

[@gatocat3336]

Did you know that you can slow down a video? Go to the settings icon ( it looks like a cog wheel) at the top right hand corner of the video screen you are watching. Click on it and you will then get some options. Click on playback speed. I often find the 0.75 speed suits me

[@robhilton5566]

Ellen… You are a ‘Rock Star’. Great Tutorial on Notes App. The work involved in creating these videos is daunting. Keep doing your thing Ellen… There’s a lot of people out here appreciating what you do. Have you done a tutorial on ‘Shortcuts’? I’ve just got into it… And it’s potential is amazing. Be Well young Lady! And… Thanks again!

[@EllensTipsForiOS]

Thanks so much for your kind words Rob! I haven’t done a specific video on shortcuts. Thanks for the suggestion.

[@cisco9027]

When I saw the title I knew their wouldn’t be any music or fluff and I’m glad I watched I’ve learned so much from this I can’t believe how much more this app does and your explanations are so clear and concise thanks for your time an informed senior.

Keep it basic… Grocery is a great Demo for all of us!! Part 1 PLEASE

[@yellowboxster06]

Great video. It helped me sort through the numerous options I have for note taking with my iPad Pro. I'm somewhat invested in Notability and GoodNotes but therein lies the problem: I'm too fragmented. It turns out I don't actually make "pretty" notes like some KZbinrs do with these two apps so my best option might be the practical choice. Apple Notes has served me well over the years but I've never really used it beyond its most bonehead simple capabilities. Time to revisit this app. Thank you.

[@EllensTipsForiOS]

Thanks Richard! I appreciate your comment. The Notes app is worth a look.

[@CXJ1898]

OMG why am I just seeing your YT Channel now! Your videos are so informative and delivered in such a way that you can sit with your iPhone/iPad in hand and follow along!! I love it ❤. Subscribed. Not sure if you've covered this in another video yet, but Apple Notes and iCloud. That confuses me and I wish I could understand how it works, because Notes on my iMac and Notes on my iPhone don't seem to function exactly the same way. On my iMac, I can't find a lot of the notes that I have on my iPhone. If you haven't covered that, I'd love to see a video on that! Thank you so much for all you're doing to help us sort through the confusion!

[@robodd4694]

Thanks so much! Ok, I'm going to admit here that I have always been a MS PC/Android user and thought Apple was weird and a joke. But as I've gotten older I finally understand. They are not stupid nor weird nor are they a joke. They make everything so simple and connected. I just never understood the learning curve and couldn't get my head out of the way I always did things, the MS way. I would get frustrated often...like with Notes. When actually it was quite simple and magical. I hated Notes in till you showed me in this video how to use it. In my old age I'm now starting to become a fan of Apple! Why did I wait so long? P.S. I am also visually Impaired and Deaf (wear a CI) and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that I can speak to text in notes!!! This I know is helpful for elderly who have difficulty hitting the small letters as well. And in regards to sound, Only Apple streams to CI's ! Steams any sounds directly to my CI ! Magical!

Hi Cindy! You are heading in the right direction. Move your PDF’s to the external drive. Attach the external drive to your Mac Mini and I store most of my files in the documents folder just like you would on your PC. Apple has a migration assistant that you should look at. Here’s the link support.apple.com/en-us/HT204087 Good luck! I think you’ll love the Mac Mini.

I think it’s really tough to share notes via FB. I did a test and you have to add all the email addresses of the people you want to view the note. I’m not sure if you would be able to share with users not using an Apple device.

[@2000konnie]

I found something really cool. I scanned the USPS tracing code on my printed receipt, and Notes instantly created a link for the USPS tracking, which in turn provided the delivery information. I wasn't expecting that at all. I though I would just have the code so I could copy and paste it .

Hi Brenda, thanks for your comment. You can only use the highlight option if you’re marking up a PDF. If you are trying to highlight text on the iPhone or iPad it’s not available.
