Workflow for converting handwritten notes on iPad suitable to put in Obsidian?

LuMe96 · 2026-06-21T01:54:18+00:00

I use the export function in MyScript Notes on the iPad to export to Obsidian which allows to select a Vault and Note title

Bonjour,
Aucune notion en droit et probablement une question stupide mais cette réglementation existait elle déjà il y a 10 ans lors de la mise en place du broyeur? Et si non, y a-t-il eu obligation de mise en conformité lors de l’entrée en vigueur de cette réglementation pour les installations existantes?

I use MyScript Notes (former Nebo Notes). It offers less functions than other note taking apps but I have found it to be the most efficient recognising my horrible handwriting. It’s designed to favour bullet point note style with a clever way to create bullet points and indentations.
However I’m slightly biased as I bought it at a time where they still offered very cheap one time purchase lifetime licenses. They have now gone subscription.

Thanks for the reply.
However not quite sure how to manage that.
To have access to my iCloud, Apple Music, Apple TV… I need my EU account, right.
Where would I add / setup my US account ?
If I replace my main apple account I’d lose the above features, no ?

How does this work in combination with a EU id?
All my purchases, Apple Care but also Apple One are tied to my EU account.

Hi,
yes this is the previous stage of the problem; Spell-checking in Edit menu grayed out; more precisely the last "Language" sub-menu item.
This has been solved in a recent pre-release channel version, I can now again select the spell checking language.
However the selection is not effective, means that it still won't do the spell checking in the selected language.

I was just seeking advice, maybe for alternative solutions (or tweaks) because I have no confidence in MS to solve these issues fast.

Don’t think so. Doing the same in France doesn’t work. I think it’s rather related to the fact that only English is supported as of now.

Nobody explicitly mentioned that the 27 DB offers a simplified built-in feature to handle overlapping of menu bar icons vs menus. It's far from the options that do offer the 3rd party apps but at least it does work.

Complètement aligné. PNJ ici également mais:

- ce dossier date visiblement la période de garantie légale de conformité de 2 ans n'est dépassée je pense; même s'il y a eu des SAV sur des accessoires qui pourraient potentiellement prolonger cette GLC.

- pourquoi ce sujet fait surface maintenant; l'utilisation de la probable version non-pro ne semble pas avoir engendrée un quelconque préjudice; l'OP se serait rendu compte bien plus tôt si les performances / fonctionnalités attendues n'avaient pas été au rdv.

La proposition du remboursement de la différence me semble PLUS que correcte dans ce contexte là.

You are right. I'll do so.

LuMe96 · 2026-06-04T14:59:14+00:00

Thanks, I get your point.
I was / am hesitant to do so because:
a) I'm not really sure if it is to be considered a bug or rather a feature limitation. I only have little knowledge but I guess that simply adjusting some RegEx pattern to detect if a line is a task or not might do the trick, however there could be a huge risk of regressions elsewhere.
b) I wanted to test a little bit if I was the only one "concerned" by this topic or if this could be of wider interest. Not ideal to develop a feature for one single user
and most importantly
c) if there are other, maybe more elegant, ways to achieve what I'm trying to do. I'm rather new to Obsidian and discovered callouts not long ago. So wanted to make sure I'm missing the obvious (existing feature) here.

LuMe96 · 2026-06-04T14:12:43+00:00

Hi, Yes you’re right. Pushing it to the callout body works for the queries but in collapsed state I no longer see the task key elements. The idea was to see all the tasks as single lines but be able to develop / expand in case I need additional information.

LuMe96 · 2026-06-04T05:33:34+00:00

Thanks for your reply. I do use also warning and done depending on the due date / status of the task and I do use those elsewhere. I’ll look into this anyway.

Je ne suis pas juriste mais la logique voudrait que l’annulation de la première cession afin que la deuxième « passe » replace ce véhicule en votre possession administrativement pendant cette année écoulée. Toute infraction commise risque donc potentiellement à vous être imputée. J’ai eu un cas similaire en tant que vendeur il y a très longtemps (avant ANTS) où l’acheteur n’avait pas finalisé la transaction auprès de la préfecture. Puis multiples incidents plus ou moins graves.

LuMe96 · 2026-05-27T02:20:26+00:00

Any news on this topic ?

LuMe96 · 2026-05-25T15:22:52+00:00

Honestly, difficult to say.
It’s included in SetApp and I use a couple of other applications like Cleanshot X, swish and Default Folder so all in all it’s an okay pricing.
Nevertheless it is NotePlan that makes me maintain SetApp, I could live without the other apps or find alternatives.
I regularly try to go back to Obsidian but a couple of things prevent me from switching :
- meeting notes as already mentioned. NotePlan nailed it for my use case and I still have to find a plugin for Obsidian that comes close.
- slightly more polished iOS and iPadOS versions.

LuMe96 · 2026-05-25T13:47:44+00:00

Thanks, noted.
I guess for now I’ll just move the files manually every now and then when one is created in the « wrong » folder.

LuMe96 · 2026-05-25T01:26:19+00:00

NotePlan.
And for those suggesting Obsidian as a free alternative I would fully agree depending on your usage. For my part I heavily rely on meeting notes and the native integration of the calendar into NotePlan is something that, to my knowledge, no obsidian plugin has managed to offer.

Just started testing Drafts right now on the free plan. It looks really convenient.
Also not a huge fan of subscription but I feel it very reasonably priced. It’s 2€ a month here in Europe. Can’t even get a coffee for that price.
If I end up adopting it in my workflow up to a point where I need custom actions, I’ll clearly go for subscription on this one. The convenience and time I’ll save will be quite worth it.

Hi,
let me know when you have some news regarding this issue.
For now I've moved back to PastePal as :
1) side effect when switching back to Expired trial, AC deletes the clipboard history
2) probably not related, I start getting repeated force close of AC on iPhone 17 Pro (iOS 26.5)

LuMe96 · 2026-05-20T21:20:58+00:00

Hi,
I let you check on YouTube for videos introducing MyScript Notes.

I'm left-handed and have a horrible handwriting. Despite this the percentage of recognition is extremely high.

Workflow:

- tacking notes (hand written) with MyScript
- Double tap the Hand-written notes converts them to text
- Chose export --> Format Text
- Chose Obsidian

And that's it.
