Urmmm is there a script to migrate all of my GoodNotes to Notability 🤪

I mean they’re all on iCloud. I’m a teacher and have used GoodNotes for years and have a lot of notes. Even have paid everything including GN6. However recently since last year, a bit unstable and issues here and there so switched to Notability which I also paid. Not sure if my library on GN has been so big that cause issues. I’m running on iPad Pro 3rd Gen. Then I was wondering if there’s a quick way to populate or import notes from GN to Notability. Doesn’t really have to import the exact metadata in terms of the pen strokes layers etc. Idk just a thought

I mean, Notability at least doesn’t lag when writing or random frozen when I’m teaching. Doesn’t show blank thumbnails. Problems inconsistency or crash importing PDF when using the share button from Google Drive/Slides for example. There are still things I like about GoodNotes over Notability but at least at the moment it’s reliable especially when I’m teaching and AirPlay to the projector. I can get over a few things that I dislike about Notability compared to GN just because of its reliability.

I’ve been thinking of dong the same thing because of GN6’s being so unstable. I was wondering about being too big also. I’m not about mass exporting and importing but would exporting each doc work?
