I don't exactly remember because it was awhile ago when I exported all my notes and I no longer have an account to check. I remember I had to google how to do it, but once I found out how to do it, it was very easy. There was just a button or link somewhere (maybe under account settings?) that allowed me to download everything as a zip file. Oh, and I remember I had to do it on the desktop website and not on a mobile device.
the iOS app can export them one by one to files -- I just went through what I had in there from 8 years back when it was the tool I used to keep things together through a move, and there were like 2 things that I actually cared about.
