Tap any note on the dashboard and it opens in the Note Viewer — a full-screen view of your handwritten page, the way a photo app shows a photo.
Moving around
- Swipe left or right to move between notes, exactly like a photo gallery. The viewer pages through whatever set you came from — all notes, search results, a notebook, or your starred notes.
- Pinch to zoom (or scroll-wheel on desktop), and double-tap to jump to 2× and back. When you're zoomed in and pan past the edge of the page, the drag turns into a swipe to the next note.
- Tap the image to show or hide the controls. They also fade out on their own after a few seconds, leaving just your page.
The controls
The top bar shows the note's title, date, and your position in the set (like "3 of 47"), plus the back button. The bottom toolbar has five buttons:
| Button | What it does |
|---|---|
| Transcription | Slides the transcription panel up from the bottom — word count plus the full text |
| Scan lines | Toggles Live Highlights — tap any handwritten line to read, copy, or fix it |
| Edit | Opens the edit page for the note (title, date, notebooks, full transcription) |
| Star | Marks the note as a favorite — see Star your notes |
| Download / Delete | Save the original photo to your device, or delete the note |
Keyboard shortcuts (desktop)
| Key | Action |
|---|---|
| ← / → | Previous / next note |
| E | Edit the note |
| S | Star / unstar |
| H | Toggle Live Highlights |
| Escape | Close (highlights first, then the viewer) |
Good to know
- Deleting a note from the viewer moves you to the next note in the set — you're only sent back to the dashboard when there's nothing left to show.
- If you arrived from a keyword search, the lines containing your match glow briefly so you can spot it on the page. See Search.
