It's a great tool. I use it for almost everything

- Bookmarking. Notion downloads the complete article not just links to it.

- Idea dump.

- Notes dump for any new learnings.

- Health records.

- Simple inventory Management. ...

Idea is to have a single app for all references. Works great across Desktop and iOS.

What I want?

1 click backup/restore.

Given that a lot of my data goes in it, and companies these days have a poor record of kicking-out users (and not telling them why) for the slightest of mistake. I would like to have some automated way to back-it-up on a daily basis.

There is a data export to .zip option buried in settings. I haven't automated it, though.

How do you use it to bookmark?

Notion has built in web clippers for iOS/Android and a chrome extension for desktop.

1 click to save any article from any device.
