My uni lab has subsidized provided* an iPad for study, so I am using it primarily for handwritten note-taking.

After a while, I figured I cannot easily transcript all of it into notes on laptop. Especially, the hand-drawn diagrams take way too much effort to translate into TeX diagrams. Since these notes are quite important to me, I want a proper backup solution.

I am using Goodnotes for note-taking. How would I go with backups of the Goodnotes files? Of course I could use iCloud, but I want to avoid it for privacy reasons. Preferably, I want self-hosted backup options. What are the good backup solutions in this case?

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Why so many downvotes? Is it bad to get an iPad? Basically my uni lab (forcefully) bought me an iPad, should I have rejected it?

    Why write off iCloud? Just turn on the advanced data protection feature for end to end encryption.

    If you want to self host, while I’m not familiar with Goodnotes I bet you could write a simple Apple shortcut to take those files to a storage provider like nextcloud then just automate that shortcut to run daily, weekly, whatever.
