Your notes in UpNote can be linked together, so you can easily have a cross reference between notes, or make your notes like a personal wiki.
To refer to another note, type [[
and you can select the note you want to refer to. You may start typing a few letters of the note title and the list will filter the relevant note result for you to choose from. Find the note you want and hit Enter
to insert the note link.
If you want to refer to a note which doesn’t exist yet, simply type the note title and UpNote will create a new note with that title for you.
You may also manually copy a note link from the note editor. Click/tap the ...
