    Notes app scanned document

    In iOS 17.x there is no more option to select text in scanned documents. It appears only a kind of magnifying glass. If a photo is inserted, it works as in iOS16.x - text can be selected, copied, etc.

    Deleted Notes

    Does anyone know how to read/view the NotesV7.storedata-wal file that notes uses to store old versions of note content? Opening in TextEdit or Browser regardless of file extension seems to just present encrypted content that is mostly not human readable.

    Does iOS 17 upgrade notes/reminders to be incompatible with previous versions?

    Despite my 2017 MacBook Pro still being incredibly snappy, it will not be compatible with the next macOS. So if I upgrade my iPad and iPhone to iOS 17, will my notes/reminders/anything else be upgraded to a version that will no longer sync or be compatible with my Mac?
