To export voice notes from Mangonote, open Settings › Export all notes: you get one zip with every note as a Markdown file, in a folder per note folder. Unzip it and drop the folder into an Obsidian vault, import the files into Notion, or keep them in any folder. For a single note, use the note’s menu › Share to send it as text or a PDF.
Export all notes as Markdown
- Open Settings in Mangonote.
- Tap Export all notes.
- In the share sheet, save the zip to Files, AirDrop it to your Mac, or send it to another app.
The zip is named like Mangonote Notes 2026-11-13. Inside:
- A folder per note folder, e.g. Meetings, Lectures. Notes without a folder sit at the top level.
- One
.mdfile per note, named date first:2026-09-22 Standup.md. Files sort by age in any file browser. - Duplicates are numbered, so nothing gets overwritten.

The team agreed to ship offline mode first…

## Transcript
[timestamped transcript]The heading has the note’s emoji and title, then the date, time and folder, the AI summary (if the note has one), and a Transcript section with timestamps. Recordings aren’t included; see below.
Import into Obsidian
An Obsidian vault is a folder of Markdown files, so there’s nothing to convert:
- Unzip the export on your Mac or in Files.
- Copy the folder into your vault, for example as Voice notes.
- Obsidian picks the notes up; the folder structure stays the same.
Tip: export again later and copy only the new files, since date-first names make them easy to spot.
Import into Notion
Notion can import Markdown files through its Import option. Unzip the export, then import the .md files; each becomes a Notion page with the headings and lists intact. Check Notion’s own help for the current import steps.
Export a single note
Open the note, tap the menu (•••) › Share. Export Options has:
- Share Note Text / Export Note as PDF / Print Note
- Share Transcript Text / Export Transcript as PDF / Print Transcript
- Share Audio File
Share Note Text is the quickest way into Apple Notes, an email or a chat.
Keeping the recordings
The Markdown export is text only. To keep audio:
- One recording: note menu › Share › Share Audio File.
- All recordings: with iCloud sync on, recordings live in Files › iCloud Drive › Mangonote.
