Have you tried this?

Import notes from your PC or Outlook to the iPhone.
...
Export Outlook notes

    First, make sure that your cloud account is configured on your iPhone. ...
    Make sure you switch the Notes toggle on and click Save:
    Open CopyTrans Contacts. ...
    Then click More > Settings > Advanced Settings.
    In the search field, type notes

You have to go down the page until you see this:
Export Outlook notes
To iPhone

Hi nickg5

Thank u for the question found, but that didn't work.

I just saw that CopyTrans Contacts has limitation, I have to buy.

I was thinking maybe there is an apps that one can import text files (that way I export Outlook to text) then I upload to THAT apps and that apps has an option to upload to iPhone notes? (seems far-fecthed, what do u think?)
11 options so see which ones work for you.

It looks like #5 is the one you want.

Number 5 is:

How do I transfer my notes to my new phone?

  • On your Android phone or tablet, open the Keep app .
  • Tap a note you want to send.
  • In the bottom right, tap Action .
  • Tap Send .
  • Pick an option: To copy the note as a Google Doc, tap Copy to Google Docs. Otherwise, tap Send via other apps. Pick an app to copy your note’s contents into.

I don't have an android so I am doing it with iPhone.  The process is one by one, I have 2,000 notes in Outlook

I did this before and I am sure EE helped - I just can't find the question helped in
Are you still using Outlook 2010?

Thanx but is not that one (that is for for OneNote)
Not sure whether I have answered your previous question or not.

But, there might be an alternative way to do what you want.

Install OneNote app in your computer.

https://www.howto-outlook.com/howto/notes2onenote.htm#quickinstall

Install notes2onenote app from the above link.

Note: howto-outlook.com is a trust worthy website and it should be safe to proceed with its app.

Sign up a new free Microsoft account and login OneNote app with your new Microsoft account.

Click the Export to OneNote app button in your Outlook 2010.

Your notes in Outlook 2010 should be exported to your OneNote app.

Download OneNote app in your iPhone and login with your new Microsoft account and your notes in Outlook 2010 are there.

The TXT approach is no longer an option since iOS 11. Forget about it.

Were you able to look through your previous questions and/or search for the one you were after?

Hi Jackie Man,

I meant "I was thinking maybe there is another app, similar to iPhone notes, that one can import text files to, like gmail or another google app.  Then maybe THAT apps has an option to upload to iPhone notes" - I am just trying to link resources to make it work (seems far-fecthed but trying)

HI slightwv (䄆 Netminder),

Were you able to look through your previous questions and/or search for the one you were after?

Yes, but didn't find anything (and I did have all my Outlook 2010 notes in my iPhone, I just don't remember how)
My memory is back.

I recalled that I have answered your previous question and the answer was to install Championlink app which is not free to do the magic.

 I don't see campanionlink prior, but ok; i want to try solve before I have to pay.

Thank u
Do you recall you have signed up a Microsoft account for using the free Exchange Online service for Outlook.com?

Then, add Outlook.com account in Outlook 2010 and you can copy the notes in your IMAP account to Outlook.com.

Finally, add Outlook.com account in your iPhone and you can move the notes in Outlook.com to your iPhone in the Notes app.
