  I am trying to migrate (Imports) notes from an old account to a new account. I mistakenly imported my notes twice and need to start over. I am on Windows 11 and access Simplenote in the app and browser.

  Is there a way to delete all my notes and start over? I have hundreds of notes so deleting individually would be daunting.

  Hi there 👋

  The fastest way to clear out duplicates would be through the mobile app (iOS or Android), which supports multi-select. Long-press a note, tap “Select All,” then deselect the ones you want to keep and trash the rest.

  If you don’t have access to the mobile app and want to start completely fresh, you could delete the new account from the web app, sign up again, and do a single import.

  Multi-select isn’t available on the Windows desktop app or the web app at this time.
