Timeline Documentation

Timeline is the Wiqis note-taking app. These guides cover everything from writing your first note to keeping it in step across your devices.

Pick a topic from the sidebar to get started.

Start here

• New to the app? Create, update and delete covers the basics, including the shortcuts that skip the editor entirely.
• Got a lot of notes? Notebooks and Tags are the two ways to file them.
• Looking for something? Search and filters will find it faster than scrolling.
• Using more than one device? Account, sync and backup explains how your notes follow you.

What Timeline can do

• Notes built from blocks: rich text, checklists, code, LaTeX maths, images, audio and drawings — reordered by dragging.
• Notebooks and tags for filing, twelve note colors, pinning, and an archive.
• Reminders that repeat on a schedule, with snooze.
• Text scanning straight out of a photo, and read-aloud for the whole note.
• Export to Markdown, HTML or PDF, on its own or zipped with its attachments.
• Automatic sync across devices when you sign in with a Wiqis account.

The two words you will see

• Notebook— the app used to call these categories. Every screen says notebook now; the only leftover is the button that assigns one, which still reads Categorize.
• Pin— pins a note to the top of your list. It is not an app lock.
