Manual Notes
Organize notes with folders
Create folders, move notes between them, and understand the folders Neato Echo makes for you.
Every note lives in a folder. All of them are stored on this PC, in Neato Echo's local database — nothing syncs anywhere.
Creating and using folders
Create a folder from the sidebar, then drag notes into it. A note can be moved between folders freely, and folders can be renamed whenever you like.
Two rules worth knowing before you reorganize:
- Default folders can't be changed or deleted. Neato Echo creates a few for itself — Meetings is where meeting recordings land, and audio fetched from a URL goes to Videos. The app will tell you: "Default folders cannot be changed."
- Folder names must be unique. A repeat gives you "A folder with that name already exists."
Where things get filed automatically
| What you did | Where it lands |
|---|---|
| Recorded a meeting | Meetings |
| Pasted a URL to transcribe | Videos |
| Dictated, or uploaded a file | Wherever you're working |
Mirroring folders to disk
If you'd like your folder structure to exist as real files on your computer, turn on Save notes as files — it writes each note as Markdown, organized by folder, to a location you choose. See export your notes.
