Link to a note or a heading
You can link one note to another, or to a heading inside a note, so a click or a tap takes you straight there.
Link to a note
-
Select the words you want to link, or put the cursor where the link should go.

On the Mac, choose Format ▸ Link…, or type
[[instead. On iPhone and iPad, tap Insert (+), then Link. -
In the link field that opens, type part of the title of the note you’re linking to, then choose it from the list.
If you didn’t select any words, the link shows the note’s title.
Link to a heading
In the link field, type # to list the headings in the note you’re in, then choose one. For a heading in another note, type part of that note’s title, then #, such as Recipes#, then choose the heading.
Link to a web page
Paste the web address into the link field, then choose the row that starts Link to.
Follow a link
Click or tap the linked words. A link to a note opens the note, a link to a heading opens the note at that heading, and a web address opens in your browser.
Change or remove a link

- On iPhone and iPad, put the cursor in the link, then tap Insert (+), then Link.

See which notes link here
Click ⓘ in the toolbar on the Mac, or tap ⓘ on iPhone and iPad, to open Note Details. Then choose Linked from, which lists the notes that link to this one, and click or tap a note to open it.
When a note is renamed or moved
When you rename or move a note or folder in Soot, Soot updates the links to it in every note. It can’t do this when a note is renamed or moved in Finder or another app. Links to a heading aren’t updated when you rename the heading, so change those links yourself.
