A Word document does not belong in a notes app until it is Markdown. Filemorph converts a DOCX file to Markdown on your iPhone, headings and lists intact.
Moving a Word document's content into Obsidian, Bear or any plain-text notes app usually means retyping it, unless something converts the file's structure into Markdown first. Filemorph reads a DOCX and rebuilds its headings, lists and paragraphs as Markdown, ready to drop into a notes vault.
Filemorph reads the DOCX's paragraph and character styles directly and maps Word's heading levels to Markdown headings, bulleted and numbered lists to Markdown list syntax, and bold or italic runs to Markdown emphasis. Tables and complex layouts come through as best-effort plain text, since Markdown itself has limited table support compared to Word.
In the app: Convert → To Markdown.
Markdown is lighter, more portable and easier to search across a notes vault than a DOCX file, and most notes apps read it natively. Converting a Word document into Markdown is the fastest way to fold its content into a note-taking workflow without retyping anything.
