Finding Notes​

  • Notes view: See all notes in a dashboard
  • Project view: See notes for a specific project
  • Search (Cmd+K): Find notes by title or content
  • Search notes (/ or Cmd+F in the Notes view): The box above the list narrows it as you type — every word you type must appear in the note's title or text, in any order. ↓ then Return opens the first result; Esc clears the search.
  • Sort: The button beside the search box orders the list by last edited, date created or title. Cadeo remembers your choice.
  • Find in a note (Cmd+F): With a note open, Cmd+F finds text in that note. The note's footer shows its word count.

Linking Notes​

Type [[ in a note or the daily note to link to another note: pick one from the list (arrow keys and Return, or click), or choose New note to make one with the name you typed. The link shows that note's current name — renaming it never breaks the link — and a click opens it.

At the bottom of a note, Linked from lists the notes that link to it, with the sentence each link sits in.

On iPhone, tap a link to open its note. (Links are made on the Mac or the web for now.)

Pinning Notes​

Pin important notes to keep them at the top:

  1. Open the note menu
  2. Click Pin

Pinned notes appear first in the Notes view.

Auto-Save​

Notes save automatically after you stop typing (1-second delay). Look for the save indicator to confirm.
