How to Resole Conflicts on Mobile App

I'm suprised no one knew the answer to this. So I decided to experiment.

  • Made a copy of the conflicting note on my mobile device and synced both my desktop and mobile devices
  • Copied the text in to a diffing tool and compared the notes and resolved the conflict and put it back in the original note and synced on both the desktop and mobile
  • Made a back up of the original notes, just in case anything happened
  • Deleted the extra copy I no longer needed and synced both the desktop and mobile devices
  • I then deleted the note from the Conflict folder and synced both the desktop and mobile devices
  • The Conflict folder then disappeared from my mobile.

Note to self, make sure that the sync is complete before editing notes.

This seems to have resolved the issue without losing the original note.
Not sure why it never appeared on my desktop, but I was able to work around that by making a copy.

Hope someone else finds this useful.
