New Note Creation

We've redesigned note creation to help you capture what matters, right when it happens. With clearer structure, built-in reminders, and a focused writing space, it's easier to turn quick notes into actionable follow-ups.

Ways to create a new note:

• Press N on the homepage to instantly start a new note
• Click the "New" button from anywhere in Dex
• NEW Dex Action Button: Open the Shortcuts app, create a new shortcut using the "Open composer" action, then go to Settings → Action Button, scroll to Shortcuts, and select it. One press opens the Dex note composer instantly.

Once you're in the flow:

• Default note types help you organize notes the moment you create them
• Add reminders while creating a note so follow-ups don't get forgotten
• Full-tab note experience gives you a focused, distraction-free workspace

Ways to add voice notes:
