Download the ColorNote mobile app. +2. Go to `Settings > Backup` and create a backup. +3. The ColorNote backup file is encrypted, so you'll need to use a decryptor tool which converts it into `.json` file of your notes. You can use [olejorgenb's ColorNote-backup-decryptor](https://github.com/olejorgenb/ColorNote-backup-decryptor). There's also a [script by CrazySqueak](https://github.com/CrazySqueak/ColorNote-backup-decryptor.sh) that uses the same tool. +4. Open the Notesnook app (web or desktop). +5. Go to `Settings > Notesnook Importer` and select `ColorNote` from list of apps. +6. Drop the `.json` file you exported earlier in the box or click anywhere to open system file picker to select the backup and click "Start processing". +7. Once importing completes you should see all your notes in Notesnook. If you face any issues during importing, [report it on github](https://github.com/streetwriters/notesnook). \ No newline at end of file
