Notes

Capture it before it's gone.

Notes is a live Markdown editor inside Ouros X. Write a thought, save it as a local Markdown file, and get back to work. No account, no chat, and no command needed.

Take your first note

1. Open Ouros with a solo tap of Right Option.

2. Choose Notes and press Return to enter the editor.

3. Write something short:

   # Follow up
   
   Ask Morgan for the revised delivery date.

4. Press ⌘S to save. You can also press ⌘K and choose Save note.

5. Press ⌘K again and choose Reveal saved note. Finder selects the file so you can confirm it's there.

A cleared editor on its own doesn't prove the note was saved, so always reveal the file for anything important.

The action palette (⌘K)

• Save note
• Record note / Stop recording
• Copy text
• Reveal saved note, which only appears after a successful save
• Play recording, which needs an audio attachment

Voice

Tap Right Command by itself to start or stop dictation. Dictation turns your speech into text, so read it over before you save.

Recording is different. It saves a WAV audio file and adds a link to it in your Markdown note. Recordings are limited to 10 minutes.

Good to know

• Notes are plain local Markdown files, so you can open them in any editor.
• It's a live editor with no separate preview pane. There's a sidebar for reopening saved notes.
• If you changed a note in another app, Ouros won't overwrite it. It keeps your draft instead.
• Each save creates its own note. For one long document, finish writing before you save.
• There's no built-in PDF, Word, or HTML export.
• If saving fails, leave the editor open and note the exact error. Use Copy text to keep a copy elsewhere.
