  • Select all notes in the note list: Click any note in the note list, then press the shortcut Cmd/Ctrl + A

  • Once your notes are selected, you can perform the following actions:

    • Drag them to the notebook/tag/Quick Access/Templates/Trash in the sidebar

    • All actions in the right pane: Pin to top, Export, Merge into a new note...

On mobile

  • Tap the ... button in the lower right corner of your note list screen.

  • Tap Select Notes

  • Select multiple notes by tapping the circle in front of each note row

  • If you want to select all notes, tap on ... again and tap Select All

  • Once your notes are selected, you can tap on the notebook icon at the bottom bar to add/move notes to other notebooks; or delete them.
