Compare before restoring
Open Display > File History for the selected note. Compare the older text with the current file. Restoring creates a new save so the replaced version remains recoverable.
Local history has limits
History stays on this Mac in app-managed storage. It is not a complete backup or a sync service. Password-protected notes are excluded from unencrypted local history.
Free writing stays available
MarkThatDown has no free note limit. Optional Pro access is available monthly, annually, or through a one-time lifetime purchase. Apple shows your local price and eligible offers before purchase.
