Editing and managing entries

Entries are the actual pieces of content inside a bundle. Depending on the bundle, an entry might be a note, task, bookmark, recipe, file, journal entry, or something else entirely.

Once you understand entries, the whole experience starts to make sense: bundles hold entries, tags organise them, and bundle settings control how they are displayed and sorted.

Creating entries

  1. Open a bundle and click New entry.

  2. Add a title if it helps, then write your content in the body.

  3. Apply one or more tags if you want the entry to be categorised immediately.

  4. Add files, photos, links, or other attachments if the entry needs more than text.

  5. Close the editor when you're done. Bundled will keep the entry inside that bundle.

Editing entries

If your bundle involves long notes or writing, the entry editor is where you spend most of your time once a bundle is set up - here are a few tips to get the most out of it.

Quick tag entry for new notes

When you create a new note, the title is focused by default. After you type a title for your note, hit enter on your keyboard and you'll be taken to the tag filter - start typing tag names to filter them, and hit enter when you see the tag you want to apply. Hit enter again to exit the tag filter and start writing the note body.

Link previews

If you paste a URL or add a hyperlink into the entry body, Bundled will try to automatically generate a rich link preview attachment. Please note that link preview generation is a best effort process and may not work for all URLs!

Find in note

Find in note is also built directly into the editor. Click Search from the bottom bar to search the current entry, see the number of results, and jump backward or forward through every result without leaving the note.

Text editor settings

Click Text editor settings in the bottom right to open the editor settings sheet, where you can control text size and line height.

Markdown and formatting

Bundled's editor is built to make Markdown feel readable while you type, rather than forcing you to switch in and out of a preview.

Formatting bar

Although Bundled uses markdown, it still has a formatting bar to help you apply styles without needing to remember the syntax. You can use the buttons to apply headings, bold, italics, lists, and more, and Bundled will insert the right markdown for you. Please note the formatting bar is not supported on web yet, but it is planned!

Supported Markdown styles

  1. Heading 1-3: start a line with #, ##, or ### followed by a space.

  2. Bold: wrap the text in single asterisks, like *bold text*.

  3. Italics: wrap the text in forward slashes, like /italic text/.

  4. Strikethrough: wrap the text in tildes, like ~crossed out text~.

  5. Bullet list: start a line with - followed by a space.

  6. Unchecked checklist item: start a line with _ followed by a space.

  7. Checked checklist item: start a line with + followed by a space.

  8. Numbered list: start a line with a number, a period, and a space, like 1. First item.

  9. Block quote: start a line with > and then your quoted text.

  10. Inline code: wrap a word or phrase in backticks, like `code`.

  11. Code block: wrap content in triple backticks, ```code block```.

  12. Plain link: type or paste a full URL like https://example.com.

  13. Hyperlink: type the label and destination in the form [label](https://example.com).

  14. Horizontal rule: put --- or ___ on its own line.

Reading mode

Alongside disabling editing, Reading mode hides markdown syntax and unselected tags. You can tap the Lock button in the bottom bar, or you can head to the Bundle menu and then to Details to enable reading mode by default (when you open an existing entry).

Attachments

You can attach files, photos, and other rich content from theAttach button. Existing attachments appear in their own strip at the bottom of the editor.

Moving, copying, and archiving

Entries do not have to stay in the bundle they started in. You can duplicate an entry, move or copy it to another bundle, or archive it when you want it out of the way. Click the Entry menu button in the bottom bar of the editor to see these options.

If you need to make bulk edits to entries, such as moving multiple entries to another bundle, you can jump to the Bulk actions guide on the sidebar!
