Where Does Tot Store Notes on iPhone and Mac?
Where Tot keeps its seven notes and settings on iPhone and Mac through iCloud sync for moves.
Last updated
Tot keeps exactly seven notes synced through iCloud with themes and settings local to each device. There is no file per note to copy; the sync record is the whole store on every device.
Sign in restores notes on new devices once sync finishes. Markdown travels as plain text inside the dots. Watch complications and widgets read the same store, so they update together on every signed in device you own.
