Find your note count, check your archive size, and export to ENEX.

Three short steps. About two minutes inside the Evernote desktop app — you'll know exactly which tier fits, and you'll have a clean .enex file ready to send.

You'll need the Evernote desktop app to export.

Evernote's web interface and mobile apps (iOS, Android) do not support ENEX export. You must use the Evernote desktop app on Mac or Windows. Don't have it installed? Download it free from evernote.com/download, log in, wait for your notes to sync, then follow the steps below.

Three steps

The whole job, on your end.

  1. 1

    Find your note count

    Open Evernote. Look at the sidebar next to All Notes — the total appears beside the label. That's your note count.

    Most long-term Evernote users land between 3,000 and 12,000 notes.

  2. 2

    Export as ENEX (desktop app only)

    In the Evernote desktop app, right-click the notebook you want to migrate (or All Notes for everything), choose Export Notes…, pick ENEX format, and save.

    The web and mobile apps don't have an export button — only desktop. Pick ENEX over HTML — it preserves notebooks, tags, and attachments.

  3. 3

    Check the file size

    Open your file explorer (Finder on Mac, File Explorer on Windows) and find the saved .enex file. Right-click → Get Info (Mac) or Properties (Windows). The file size appears in GB or MB.

    Note count and file size together pinpoint your tier.
