Swipe Actions on Notes

What it does

Swipe left or right on a note card to reveal quick actions. The available actions change depending on the note's current state and which view you're in.

How to use it

  1. Swipe right on a note card to reveal the left-side action button. The label changes by context:
  2. Normal note → Pin
  3. Pinned note → Unpin
  4. Archived note (in any view) → Unarchive
  5. Note in Bin view → Restore
  6. Tap the revealed button to perform the action.
  7. Swipe left on any note card to reveal the trash icon on the right side.
  8. Tap the trash icon to delete the note. Deletion behaviour varies by view:
View Left-swipe action Result
Normal notes list Trash icon Soft-delete, note moves to Bin
Archive view Trash icon Soft-delete, note moves to Bin
Bin view Trash icon Permanent delete: confirmation dialog appears
  1. In Bin view, swiping left triggers a confirmation dialog: "Are you sure you want to delete this? Once notes are permanently deleted you cannot recover." Tap Delete to confirm.

Tips & shortcuts

  • Swipe actions are the fastest way to pin/unpin or delete a note without opening it.
  • To bulk-delete, bulk-archive, or bulk-restore multiple notes, use multi-select mode (long-press any note) instead of individual swipes.
