# Filter your notes

When you first open UpNote, you will see 3 filters: **`Todo`** and **`Uncategorized`** and **`Unsynced`** under the **`All Notes`** section. You may click on the down-arrow button in front of the “All Note” label to expand or collapse these filters.

**`Todo`** filter automatically displays notes which contain incomplete todo items. This would help you quickly glance through and update your tasks.

**`Uncategorized`** filter displays notes which do not belong to any notebook. This way you can review your notes and organize them to their notebooks if necessary.

**`Unsynced`** filter displays notes which are not fully synced to the server yet. If a part of the note content (e.g. images, attachments...) is not fully uploaded and synced, it will appear in this filter. You can check the Unsynced filter to find out if any of your notes are not synced.
