Folders and subnotebooks in Notes.

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I want to suggest a new feature within Notes. It would be great to better organize my notes to make them easier to find and look over. I think the easiest way to do this would be having Folders that you can organize your notes into.

For example, I take notes for Seminary, for preaching, for daily Bible reading, for small groups, and for just random things I learn.

It would be great to have a "School" folder to put all my class notebooks into, and a Preaching folder to put all my preaching notes into.

We could even go a step further, and have subfolders, which I think I would utilize as well. This could be done somewhat similar to how OneNote does their organization.

Let me know what you think.

Hello, you may know this already and find it unsatisfactory, but here goes 😊: You can tag your notes based on the categories you are describing. Then, at any time, you can filter to show just those notes tagged for a particular category. That is how I conveniently organize and manage my 10,000 (and growing) set of notes.

I do like the tagging system, but I would still prefer more organization on top of that. .

The tagging system allows for notes to be in multiple groups at the same time; folders and subfolders limit a note to a single place. What additional organization are you trying for? Perhaps we can help you get what you want.

Folders are gaining traction, maybe we can add the subfolders to it?

hey, thanks for your reply.
I do like the tagging system, but it is more work than what I’m asking for.
I make a lot of notes, and some are pretty fast notes with little information. I don’t like having to tag each note and highlight with the category I want it to go in. It would be far more efficient to have it simply be in the folder.

I use tags for more specific items that this note covers that I would want to easily find later when doing on related story, but that’s different from what I’m saying.

I’m sorry, I’m not sure what you mean by this.

The link I posted is another idea that was added that is getting popular about folders, maybe we can add your subfolder idea to that idea.

Atlas expansions beyond the biblical timeframe
I reached out to sales and they said there's nothing with this at present. It'd be great to see more resources/expansion added to the Atlas tool, particularly with Church History post-biblical era.

Allow users to type in the sermon builder on the IOS Mobile app.
Perhaps there is a way to do this, but I have looked and not been able to find it. I would love to be able to actually work on my sermons from my IOS phone.

Sort Smart Bible Searches
It would be nice to be able to sort smart Bible searches. I like that I can save them as a passage list and then sort them, but one less step would be ideal. I came across a theme in Ezekiel 20 of God's name and I wanted to see how many times this idea is in Ezekiel. Smart Bible search was perfect for this!
