Creating your first bundle
Bundles are like folders or notebooks: a space to organize related notes, tasks, or content. To get started, you need to create one.
Bundles can be made for anything: a project, a to-do list, a movie collection, bookmarks, or simply for storing random notes. As you start using the app, you'll discover new ways to use them.
But let's start with something simple: let's make a Recipes Bundle.
What if I don't want a specific bundle, and want to get straight to taking random notes?
Organizing your content into bundles is key to making the most of the app, but some things aren't easily categorised. There's an easy way to handle this! Simply create a bundle called "General Notes" or "Random", and use it as a space to store everything that does not fall into a specific bucket.
You can also create a Home Screen shortcut to easily jump straight into this bundle, if it's what you use most of the time.
How to make a bundle
On the Home screen, click the Create bundle button.
Choose a name for your bundle. In this case, "Recipes".
Pick the template that feels closest. Templates only change the default settings of a bundle, so you can adjust things later.
Save the bundle!
It's that easy. You now have a bundle dedicated to tracking your recipes.
Adding your first entry (i.e. recipe, or note)
Once you have made your first bundle, open it, then click New note in the bottom right. Use the title field for the name of the recipe, and enter the recipe in the body.
Alternatively, you can paste a link to a recipe into the body content, and your note will automatically be turned into a rich link preview.
What's an entry?
In these guides, you'll notice that I refer to notes as "entries". An entry is simply any piece of content inside a bundle - be it a note, a task, a bookmark, a file/photo, or anything else.
In a recipe bundle, entries are recipes; in a book bundle, entries are books; in a task bundle, entries are tasks, and so on.
Tagging
Tags are key to organising content inside a bundle. In this recipe bundle, you might want to create tags like Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, and Dessert.
There's an Add tag button at the top of the bundle page to create new tags - but you'll learn more on the next page.
Congrats - you've made your first bundle, and added your first entries to it!
If you want to start jotting down basic notes, I recommend creating an Assorted/Random bundle now - it's a nice place to start while you work out how to make the most of bundles.
