Notes and folders

Favorites

Star the notes you keep coming back to, and find them at the top of the sidebar.

What it is for

In a long list, the two or three notes you open every day are easy to lose, especially when they live a few folders deep. A starred note is listed under Favorites at the top of the sidebar, so it is one click away whichever folders are open.

How to use it

  1. Open a note and press the star in the bar above it. Or right-click the note (or press its ⋮ button) → Add to favorites.
  2. The note is listed under Favorites at the top of the sidebar, and a star shows beside it in its folder and in search results.
  3. Press the Favorites heading to fold the list away, and again to open it.
  4. To take a note off, press the filled star again, or open its menu → Remove from favorites.

Example

A running log buried in a folder

Your daily log and personal to-do list live three folders deep. Star them, and they sit at the top of the sidebar without opening a single folder.

Good to know

  • A favorite is a shortcut, not a move: the note stays in its folder and is listed in both places. Favorites are listed alphabetically.
  • The Favorites heading appears once at least one note is starred.
  • Favorites follow your account to every device. Whether the list is folded away is remembered on each device.
