Create and organize your notes with ease. Noteverse provides a simple yet powerful interface for capturing your thoughts and ideas.

​
Creating a new note

1

Start creating

Click the New Note button from your dashboard or notes list to create a new note.
2

Add a title

Enter a descriptive title in the title field at the top of the page. The title field displays “Untitled” as a placeholder until you add your own.
Choose clear, descriptive titles to make your notes easier to find later.
3

Add content

Click into the editor area below the title to start writing. The editor supports rich text formatting including:
  • Headings and paragraphs
  • Bold, italic, and underlined text
  • Lists and checklists
  • Links and images
  • Code blocks
Use the / slash command to quickly insert different content types.

​
Setting visibility

Control who can access your note by setting its visibility level:
  • Private - Only you can view and edit the note (default setting)
  • Public - Anyone with the link can view the note, and it appears in featured notes
  • Shared - Only specific users you invite can access the note
You can change the visibility setting at any time from the share menu. Private is the default for all new notes.

​
Organizing with categories and tags

​
Adding categories

Categories help you group related notes together:
1

Select a category

Choose a category from the category dropdown menu when creating or editing your note.
2

Choose a subcategory (optional)

If applicable, select a subcategory to further organize your note within the main category.

​
Adding tags

Tags provide an additional layer of organization:
  1. Click in the tags field
  2. Type your tag name and press Enter
  3. Add multiple tags to describe different aspects of your note
  4. Use existing tags to keep your organization consistent
Use categories for broad organization (like “Work” or “Personal”) and tags for specific topics or themes that might span multiple categories.

​
Auto-save behavior

Your notes are automatically saved as you type:
  • Changes are saved 1 second after you stop typing
  • You’ll see a “Saving…” indicator with a loading spinner during the save process
  • A green “Saved” badge appears when your changes are successfully saved
  • No manual save button needed - just write and your work is protected
The auto-save feature works seamlessly with real-time collaboration, ensuring all collaborators see your latest changes.

​
Editing existing notes

To edit a note you’ve already created:
  1. Find the note in your notes list or dashboard
  2. Click on the note to open it
  3. Make your changes to the title or content
  4. Changes save automatically as you type

​
Edit permissions

  • Owner: You have full edit access to notes you created
  • Shared with Edit permission: Users you’ve invited with Edit access can modify the note
  • Shared with View permission: Users with View-only access cannot edit the note
If you don’t have edit permission, the title field and editor will be disabled. You can still view the note and add comments.

​
Tips for effective note-taking

  • Use descriptive titles: Make your notes easy to identify at a glance
  • Organize early: Add categories and tags as you create notes
  • Leverage formatting: Use headings, lists, and formatting to structure your content
  • Trust auto-save: No need to manually save - focus on writing instead
