Memos
Usage

Tags

Organize memos with hashtags and filter them with searchable metadata.

Tags are created directly from memo content. Write #tagname anywhere in a memo and Memos extracts it automatically.

Tag basics

Working on the #backend API today.
This relates to #project-alpha and #development.

Meeting with #team tomorrow to discuss #roadmap.

Good tag habits

  • pick a consistent case style
  • avoid near-duplicate tags for the same concept
  • use hyphens for multi-word tags
  • prefer a small, predictable vocabulary over endless one-off tags

Filters

Memos also supports richer filtering beyond plain text search. Saved filters and shortcuts can combine tags with memo properties.

Examples:

tag in ["work"]
tag in ["work"] && visibility == "PRIVATE"
has_incomplete_tasks
has_link
tags.exists(t, t.startsWith("project"))

When tags help most

  • ongoing projects
  • meeting notes
  • recurring areas of work
  • public knowledge you want to group consistently
  • use shortcuts to save filters you run often
  • combine tags with search when browsing older memos
  • align tag naming with how your team expects to browse content
