1. The finger and text touch keyboard annotation on epub exports by various methods. Don't annotate epubs by pen. Export is via USB plain text.
2. If you have sensible PDFs and suitable PDF software on Mac, iOS, Windows, Linux or Android you can "write" on a PDF with pen and copy it off via USB. You can even export that layer later in Windows, Android or Linux with a suitable PDF viewer.
3. The notebooks have multiple export formats. PNG or PDF is useful for basic ones and docx or plain text is useful for Advanced ones (Copy via USB or Dropbox). The actual Nebo notebooks can be copied via USB also, and import to full versions of Nebo, but not vice versa.
I can actually mount a Kobo on an Android 4.1 phone via micro USB to USB-A OTG adaptor and read/write via file manager. A USB-C to USB-A OTG adaptor works on Android 13 tablet, but only if Kobo is on a hub that also has a USB memory stick. I can then read/write epub or pdfs, copy off text annotations (you can add a menu to export as text (per ebook) from MyBooks), copy off Nebo files, or exports from Nebo.
All far better than Kindle.
