Syncing Accounts​

To sync with desktop, make sure to use the same account on both devices.

Home Page​

The home page is the central view of the app form which you can:

  • Search notes
  • Quick capture new notes
  • See similar notes as you type
  • Tag and manage tags
  • Connect notes
  • View account settings

Searching​

You can search notes by typing in the search bar and results will automatically update.

Search Bar

You can click on the 'Similarity' dropdown to switch to keyword search.

This will search by looking for typed keywords in the note.

tip

Generic words like 'this', 'a', 'the', etc. will not be useful in finding notes as they are generic and not keywords.

You can omit these words and use words part of the note instead.

Taking notes​

Just press on the button in the search bar to take a note.

You do not need to wait for search results to appear related to the note; those are just for your interest if you want to see related notes .

Speech to text​

Click the microphone to use your voice to take notes if you prefer it this way.

Similarity Slider​

You can use this to change how similar the results have to be what you typed.

If you want only extremely similar notes to appear, slide right depending on how close of a similarity match you want.

If you want more notes to appear or find indirectly similar ones, slide left.

To tag a note, use the tag in the top left.
