# Notes, collections, and to-dos

> How Mumble Note organizes what you record: notes, the collections that group them, and the to-dos pulled out of them.

Three things, three tabs at the bottom of the app. **Notes** are what you record. **Collections** group notes by project or topic. **To-dos** are the tasks Mumble pulls out of your notes.

## Notes

Every recording or typed entry becomes one note with a title, the write-up, the transcript, and its action items. Notes can be shared as text, copied, given a different format, extended with a follow-up recording, or discussed in AI chat. [Your first note](/note/first-note)

Select any text inside a note and choose **Make it a to-do** from the menu that pops up to turn that line into a task.

## Collections

A collection is a folder with a brain. Open one and you get three tabs:

* **list**: the notes inside, in full or in a **Simplified** view.
* **to-dos**: every to-do from those notes in one place, grouped by note or by due date, with a **Set reminder** button for the whole collection.
* **note**: a page you write yourself, for the summary or plan that ties the notes together.

Use **Add notes** in the list header to pull in existing notes; Mumble shows related ones first. Swipe a collection in the collections list to **Pin** it to the top. Deleting a collection removes the folder only; the notes inside stay.

### Filing notes into collections

When a note is written, Mumble suggests **Recommended collections** under its title. Tap one to accept, or the X to reject. You can also file a note from the **Collection** chip while recording, or from the note’s bottom bar later.

**Collection Auto Mode** does the filing for you: each new voice note goes into the best-matching collection, or a new one if nothing fits. Turn it on from the collection picker or under **Settings > AI Mode**. It is a Pro feature. [Compare plans](/note/plans)

## To-dos

The **to-dos** tab sorts your tasks into **Important**, **Today**, **Upcoming**, **No schedule**, **Inbox**, and **Done**. Tap the circle to complete one, or tap the task to set a date, importance, or tags.

### Where to-dos come from

* **Task notes** add the to-dos you said out loud to your inbox automatically. Turn this off under **Settings > AI Mode > Auto Mode for Task**.
* **Every other note** lists what it found on its **action items** tab. When Mumble is confident, it shows **Mumble picked these out** with an **Add all** button; you can pick a destination such as Today or Important, and **Undo all** if you change your mind.
* **A collection** shows **Mumble found suggested to-dos** with a **Review** link when new suggestions are waiting.
* **You**, from selected text in a note, or with the **+** on the to-dos tab.

Accepted to-dos can go straight to Apple Reminders, Google Tasks, or Things, and dated plans to your calendar. [App integrations](/note/integrations)
