Notes

Enhancing your tasks with notes

Notes are a fantastic way to add more context to your tasks. Whether you want to jot down some bullet points, reminders, or even a full-blown brainstorm, notes have got you covered. And the best part? They are fully shareable when you share your tasks, making collaboration easy.

Adding notes

Adding a note to a task

To add a note to a task you are currently viewing, simply click the 'Notes' button located underneath the task title.

1. Find the 'Notes' button underneath the task title.
2. Clicking it will take you to a separate notes page for that task.
3. Start typing away. Your notes will be saved automatically.

Alternatively press the "n" key when you have no tasks selected.

Adding a note to a subtask

Adding a note to a subtask follows a similar process:

1. Locate the subtask you want to add a note to
2. Click on the menu icon on the right of the subtask, and then select 'Notes'
3. You'll be navigated to the notes page for that subtask
4. Type your notes. All changes are saved automatically

Alternatively press the "n" key when you have the subtask selected.

Viewing and editing notes

When a note has been added to a task, a yellow/orange note icon will appear underneath the task title. Similarly, if a note has been added to a subtask, the icon will appear next to the subtask title.

1. Clicking on the note icon or "Notes" button will take you to the notes page for that task
2. Make any necessary changes and your edits are saved automatically

Deleting Notes

To delete a note:

1. Navigate to the notes page of the task or subtask
2. Click on the "Clear notes" button
3. You'll be prompted to confirm your decision. Once confirmed, the note will be deleted permanently

Alternatively press the "del" or "backspace" keys when the text area is out of focus (i.e. you're not typing in it - you can press "esc" to exit the text area).

Navigating to tasks

There are two ways to navigate away from the notes page:

Back to the previous page:

1. Click the "Back" button in the top left of the notes page

Alternatively press the "←" key when the text area is out of focus

Go to the associated task page:

1. Click the "Go to task" button in the top left of the notes page

Alternatively press the "↑" key when the text area is out of focus

Sharing Notes

When you share a task, the associated notes are shared along with it, providing extra value and context to anyone who duplicates your shared tasks.

You can also link a user directly to the notes page of a task by copying the URL of the notes page.

If another user chooses to copy your task, they can select whether to include notes or not.

Privacy

Notes are opt-in and entirely under your control. They are private by default and only become public when you share a task.
