"Inbox" vs "Notes", what's the difference?

[defulmere]

Th FSNotes sidebar has items for "Inbox" and "Notes":

They both seem to show the same content when I select either of them. What's the difference between these 2 items?

Inbox - notes in the root folder.
Notes - all notes.

Hmm, ok thanks.

IMHO these show their differences depending on how you use FSNotes.

For me I never tag/sort/organise anything so Inbox and Notes are effectively the same thing. So I turn them off in View > Show in Sidebar (in fact I have no FSNotes organisational items showing in Sidebar).

If you do organise, then Inbox is generally your unsorted notes.

Thank you. This was helpful. I looked around but couldn't hide it on iOS. Am I missing something? Is there a way to hide items like "Inbox", "Untagged" etc on iOS as well? (I do not use note apps in such detailed manner hence thinking of hiding them).

I never use the sidebar on iOS, so everything is effectively hidden. But you can tap and hold on a tab to get "View Options" that might let you do what you want.
