Folders
Folders help you keep notes organized by project, topic, or area of work. Notes supports hierarchical folders, so you can build a simple tree instead of keeping everything in one long list.
Adding a Folder
- Click the "+" button next to "FOLDERS" in the sidebar.
- Select "File" > "New Folder" from the menu bar.
- Press Shift+Cmd+N on macOS or Shift+Ctrl+N on Windows or Linux.
Moving to Folder
Drag one folder onto another to create a nested structure.
Renaming and Deleting
Right-click the folder and choose "Rename" or "Delete".
Folder Icons
Folder icons make larger note libraries easier to scan. Right-click a folder and choose Set Icon.
Use the Icons tab to search the built-in Material and Lucide collections. Choose Remove Icon from the folder context menu to restore the default icon.
Emoji and Uploaded Images
>=5.9
- Emoji uses the system emoji style for your platform.
- Upload accepts JPG or PNG images up to 10 MB and shows a preview before applying the image.
Uploaded images are cropped from the center, resized to 128×128, and stored as a hidden .icon.png file inside the folder.
Moving Notes
Drag and drop notes between folders.
