Notes are probably the most important thing for me on my phone, ranging from jokes and quotes from my friends and family, to fanfiction and original stories. But I’m planning to buy a new phone soon. It’s gonna be a Xiaomi, like my current one, (bc it’s affordable) but I’m not sure i will be able to use Mi cloud to conveniently transfer them, because i want to install LineageOS in my next phone. As well as that, there’s also my old Samsung Galaxy Ace 4, which i want to transfer the notes from somehow, while it is still working. On that old Samsung, i could send notes via Bluetooth to my sister’s phone, but when i tried to send them to this phone, it opened as gibberish (if i remember correctly. That was 4 years ago now) Is there a convenient way to transfer my notes between devices so i won’t lose them forever? 😞
you really gonna ask this and not list what apps you use to store your notes on?
What notes app are you using? Ideally, it would have an export/import feature and you would use the same app on the new device.
Without knowing which notes app you are using it may be difficult to help you.
I hate that most notes apps save your files somewhere you can’t easily access, fortunately I found Markor which has the feature to let me chose where to save my notes.

As I said, without knowing which app you are using is not easy to give you a valid advice, all I can think right know is using the clipboard to copy/paste the notes content to an app like markor, Notes or Collaboration Office and save the file on an SD card.
When all else fails, email yourself… :/
Google keep syncs to you Google account and requires no manual exporting or transferring. You could also achieve something similar with OneNote. So maybe consider using a different note app?
