    Text Shortcut Syncing

    For reference, I'm talking about the text replacement shortcuts (a default one is "omw" for "On my way!") I seem to remember at one point that these shortcuts would sync between iPhone and Mac through iCloud. It actually happened for me once at long time ago, but never since. Is this not a...

    With the new features added in El Capitan's notes app I have been working on migrating from Evernote.
