Notes created in iOS 15 beta unavailable on earlier versions
According to 9to5Mac, content created in the Notes app on the iOS 15, iPadOS 15 and macOS 12 Monterey betas might not appear on your other devices. In other words, new notes created in the beta version of Notes will be unavailable in earlier stable iOS and macOS versions.
If the Notes app detects a device in your iCloud account running a version earlier than iOS 14.5 or macOS Big Sur 11.3, it will alert you that tagged notes or mentions will be unavailable on those devices. Interestingly, the latest versions of iOS 14 and macOS Big Sur are partially compatible with these features.
The already feature-rich Apple Notes app gets better and better with each OS revision.
Everything new in Apple’s Notes app on iOS 15
With the iOS 15, iPadOS 15 and macOS 12 Monterey updates, the Notes app provides additional new features on your iPhone, iPad and Mac. You can use mentions and tags to categorize and organize your notes, plus view tagged notes using a dedicated tab browser.
Custom Smart Folders automatically collect notes in one place based on tags. Other updates to the Notes app include easier tracking of changes in shared notes, the ability to find and edit the Quick Notes you created on other Apple devices, and more.
