# Sort notes
UpNote allows you to **sort your notes** in different ways so you can view them in the order that works best for you. You can sort notes by **title** or **date**, or set a **custom order** to keep your notes organized your way.
By default, notes are sorted by **Last Updated (newest first)**. You can change the sorting order globally or set different sorting preferences for each notebook and tag — UpNote remembers your choice separately for each view.
