Info

Termux needs to be installed for this.

One-time setup:

  1. Install Termux

    • Installing Termux application allows us to execute command line instructions (you will only have to setup it once, then Zettel Notes will use it as an intermediary for format conversions).
    • Download via Play Store or F-droid (Recommended).

  2. Grant Zettel Notes permission to access Termux by clicking on first button in dialog

  3. Select the output file format

  4. Configure storage access in Termux.

    • To do this you need to open Termux and type the command termux-setup-storage.
    • On Android 14, if Termux reports an aborted operation, run pkg install termux-am and then termux-setup-storage again.

  5. Enable external application access in Termux.

    • To enable it you have to edit from Termux itself its properties file ~/.termux/termux.properties. Read more on Github
    • Or you can paste the following command in termux echo "allow-external-apps=true" >> ~/.termux/termux.properties

  6. Install Pandoc

    • To do this paste pkg install pandoc in termux.

  7. Enter absolute path for repository

    • Tell Termux the absolute address in Android of the repository of our notes. Something similar to /storage/emulated/0/<repository>.

  8. Click on export button
