Customizing your bundles

Bundles are designed to be customizable, so you can choose the features and look & feel that work best for you.

It's not mandatory to customize your bundle, but if you want to make the most of the app, it's worth exploring the options available:

  1. Look & feel settings - the layout and colors of entries in the bundle

  2. Tags & tag settings- what tags you add to the bundle, their colors, order, and features

  3. Sorting & grouping - how entries are ordered and clustered

  4. Details - the name & description of what's in the bundle

  5. Extra features - including configuring tasks and Kanban boards

Look & feel

To start, click Bundle menu at the bottom of the screen, then click Look & feel. You will see the following bundle options:

Layout mode

You can choose between a standard card, compact or grid layout. This is a personal preference: a grid might work best for a bundle with mixed media, or random notes, while the standard or compact layout could be better suited to a list of tasks or bookmarks.

You can also enable Ranked list mode, which overlays a number on each entry based on its position - handy for priority lists or any bundle where order matters.

Color coding

Here, you can choose whether entries in the bundle should be color-coded based on their tags. You can choose tinted or rich colors, or turn off color-coding entirely.

If you choose tinted or rich colors, entries will be colored based on the primary (i.e. highest priority) tag. You can set tag priority in the "Tags & tag settings" section. You can also choose to hide the primary tag from the entry itself, since its color already communicates it.

Note previews

You can control how much of each entry is shown in the list. Use the preview size slider to set the maximum number of lines shown (0–15). Setting it to 0 hides the preview entirely — you can optionally show an ellipsis in that case to indicate there is content.

A separate slider controls how many attachments are previewed per entry (0–5).

Other display options

You can toggle compact tags to reduce the visual weight of tag chips, and independently show or hide the edited and created timestamps on each entry.

Tags & tag settings

Open Bundle menu and click Tags & tag settings to control tag behavior and priority.

Tag priority

Here, you can drag and drop tags to set their priority. Remember, tag priority affects the following:

  • The order of tags in the tag list

  • The order that tags appear on entries

  • How entries are color-coded when colorful note backgrounds are enabled

  • How entries are grouped when grouping by tags is enabled

Group by tag

Toggle Group notes by tag / tag priority to cluster entries together under their highest priority tag. This is also available in the "Sorting & grouping" settings.

Sorting & grouping

Open Bundle menu and click Sorting and grouping to control how entries are ordered.

Sort method

This determines the default order of entries in the bundle. You can choose from:

  • Manual — drag entries into your preferred order

  • Alphabetical (A→Z or Z→A)

  • Updated — newest or oldest edits first

  • Created — newest or oldest entries first

Additional options

These options apply before the main sort method, and can help surface important entries or group related entries together:

  • Group by tag priority — cluster entries by their highest-priority tag

  • Move completed items to the bottom — keeps finished tasks out of the way

  • Show notes with reminders first — surfaces upcoming reminders at the top

Pinning

You can override the sort order of individual entries by pinning them to the top of the bundle. Long press an entry to reveal Pin to top.

Bundle details

Beyond the name and description you set when creating a bundle, you can edit these at any time from Details in Bundle menu.

Name & description

Update the bundle's name and optional description here.

Content labels

You can set custom singular and plural labels for the items in the bundle — for example, "recipe" / "recipes" instead of the default "entry" / "entries".

Open in reading mode

Toggle this to open entries in reading mode by default. Useful for bundles where you browse more than you edit.

Extra features

You'll notice an option to configure Kanban boards in theBundle menu, which is covered in a dedicated guide later - but for now, I recommend continuing to the next guide to understand the full range of bundle, entry and tag features.
