A note’s action menu collects the commands that affect the whole entry, including its media and metadata where applicable.

Open the note actions

  1. On iPhone or iPad, touch and hold a note. Swipe actions also expose Edit, Duplicate, and Delete.
  2. On Mac, right-click the note in a card, list, or table.
  3. Choose Copy, Share Note, Duplicate Note, Move to group, or Delete.
Touch and hold a note to reach its full action set.

Understand what each action does

Copy places the note text on the clipboard. Share Note opens the system share sheet. Duplicate Note creates another entry. Move to group keeps the note but changes its private-group home. Delete sends it to Trash rather than erasing it immediately.

A shared-group note follows collaboration permissions and is not moved into another private or shared group through the standard Move action.

Recover an accidental deletion

Open Settings > Recycle bin and choose Restore before the 30-day retention window ends. Permanent deletion and Empty Trash cannot be undone.
