Labels and filters in Notes

Group notes with labels and narrow the list down.

Labels group notes by topic, like Work, Home or Recipes. A note can have as many labels as you like.

Add a label

  • Open a note (or hover over a card) and choose the label button. Tick a label, or type a new name and choose Create.
  • Or drag a note onto a label in the sidebar.
  • To label several notes at once, select them and use the label button in the bar at the top.

Manage labels

Choose Edit labels in the sidebar to create, rename or delete labels. Deleting a label removes it from your notes but keeps the notes.

Filters

Choose a label in the sidebar to see only those notes. Above your notes you can also filter by Checklists, Images, Reminders or colour. Search looks through titles, text and label names, and highlights what matches.
